[PATCH] rust: remove spurious compiler_builtins dependents

[Tamir Duberstein]

The dependency on `compiler_builtins.o` was first added in commit
2f7ab1267dc9 ("Kbuild: add Rust support") to `alloc` which matches the
standard library[0] but was copied to other targets in:
- commit ecaa6ddff2fd ("rust: add `build_error` crate")
- commit d072acda4862 ("rust: use custom FFI integer types")
- commit 4e1746656839 ("rust: uapi: Add UAPI crate")
- commit d7659acca7a3 ("rust: add pin-init crate build infrastructure")

The alloc crate was removed in commit 392e34b6bc22 ("kbuild: rust:
remove the `alloc` crate and `GlobalAlloc`"). As fas as I can tell none
of the other dependencies are required; it is only required that
compiler_builtins be linked into the rust-enabled kernel. In the
standard library, compiler_builtins is a dependency of std[1].

Remove these dependency edges. Add a dependency edge from
`compiler_builtins` to `core` to `scripts/generate_rust_analyzer.py` to
match `rust/Makefile`. This has been incorrect since commit 8c4555ccc55c
("scripts: add `generate_rust_analyzer.py`")
