Description
Currently, rust-format-buffer does not care about remote rustfmt.toml if user uses tramp. (Local works fine considering config file). Can we fix it should see the remote config file?
FYI: eglot-format-buffer works well for remote file, so for those who cares this issue, use the function instead.

Research direction
Start by tracing rust-format-buffer and comparing its remote behavior with eglot-format-buffer when a file uses TRAMP. Verify how the remote rustfmt.toml is located and used. Done means remote buffers respect their rustfmt configuration while existing local behavior remains unchanged.
