Description

Similar to #222 :

    fn it_works() {
            fn helper() {}
           let a = 1 + 1;<CURSOR_HERE>
    }

If place cursor at marked place and execute M-x rust-beginning-of-defun
then cursor jump to begin of fn helper() instead of fn it_works.

May be cause kwrooijen/cargo.el#41 (see last comment)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the nested Rust function example and run M-x rust-beginning-of-defun from the marked position. Inspect the implementation of rust-beginning-of-defun and the related behavior described in issue #222; done means it moves to fn it_works rather than fn helper when the cursor is inside the outer function.
