[PATCH] remove sysroot assertion in generate_rust_analyzer.py

From: Onur Özkan
Date: Wed Dec 24 2025 - 09:13:24 EST


With nixpkgs's rustc, rust-src component is not bundled
with the compiler by default and is instead provided from
a separate store path, so this assumption does not hold.

The assertion assumes these paths are in the same location
which causes `make LLVM=1 rust-analyzer` to fail on NixOS.
