[PATCH v3 1/2] rust: impl_flags: add conversion functions
From: Andreas Hindborg
Date: Thu Nov 05 2026 - 10:53:16 EST
Add two conversion functions to the `impl_flags!` macro:
- A `From<_>` implementation to convert from the flag value enum to
underlying type.
- A `TryFrom<_>` implementation to convert from the underlying
representation to flag container type.
Drop the hand-written `TryFrom<u32> for VmMapFlags` in tyr, which now
conflicts with the implementation generated by `impl_flags!`. The two are
equivalent.
