Description

Adapted from #75

Presumably there is a large crossover between people using meta-rust-bin and people who need to interface C with Rust. Providing a "paved path" for using bindgen would therefore be useful.

I am unaware of any existing recipes/layers to support bindgen in yocto right now but would be happy to be proven wrong.

Research direction

Start by reading the referenced issue #75 and inspecting the meta-rust-bin Yocto layer for existing recipes or layers related to bindgen. Determine what a supported bindgen path would require; done means the approach is implemented or clearly documented for Rust projects interfacing with C.
