With the bump to Meson 1.10.0, C objects can be passed to rust targets.
This way, the Rust libstd will be added by rustc itself in its final
linker invocation.  Use that to eliminate the staticlib and allow
dynamic linking with libstd (also introduced by Meson 1.9.0, but not
for staticlib crates due to lack of support in rustc).

The main() function is still provided by C, which is possible by
declaring the main source file of the Rust executable (which is
still created by scripts/rust/rust_root_crate.sh) as #![no_main].
