[PATCH v2 1/1] scripts/rust_is_available: Fix clang version check

From: Ethan D. Twardy

During out-of-tree builds where the path to the kernel source tree
contains a version string, scripts/rust_is_available.sh incorrectly
identified the version string of libclang to be the version string in
the kernel sources path, resulting in CONFIG_RUST_IS_AVAILABLE
erroneously set to 'n'.

This issue was previously affecting builds on distributions, such as
Gentoo Linux, where the kernel source tree is under version control,
and placed under a path containing the current kernel version string
in /usr/src.

The fix is to take special care to match only the version string
following the string 'clang version' in the output.

To reproduce:

$ cd ~/build && make -C ~/linux-6.2.0 O=$PWD LLVM=1 rustavailable
[...]
*** libclang (used by the Rust bindings generator 'bindgen') is too old.
*** Your version: 6.2.0
*** Minimum version: 11.0.0
[...]
