[PATCH v2 6/6] docs: rust: include other expressions in conditional compilation section

From: Miguel Ojeda
Date: Mon Sep 02 2024 - 12:57:49 EST


Expand the conditional compilation section to explain how to support
other expressions, such as testing whether `RUSTC_VERSION` is at least
a given version, which requires a numerical comparison that Rust's `cfg`
predicates do not support (yet?).

+For other predicates that Rust's ``cfg`` does not support, e.g. expressions with
+numerical comparisons, one may define a new Kconfig symbol:
