Description

See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/62999 and https://github.com/RustAudio/coreaudio-sys/pull/28/commits/bf9714fb818daae882e7c04752b711308c550f15
TL;DR: when the generated bindings are very large and contain warnings, rust emits warnings, each of which show the entirely of the generated bindings.

Research direction

Start with the linked rust-lang/rust issue and coreaudio-sys commit to compare the reported behavior when rustfmt is disabled. Reproduce the warning output for large generated bindings; done means warnings no longer print the entire generated file on one line.
