[PATCH 1/1] arm: rust: Enable Rust support for ARMv7

This commit allows building ARMv7 kernels with Rust support.

The rust core library expects some __eabi_... functions
that are not implemented in the kernel.
Those functions are some float operations and __aeabi_uldivmod.

This is based on the code by Sven Van Asbroeck from the original
rust branch and inspired by the AArch version by Jamie Cunliffe.

I have tested the rust samples and a custom simple MMIO module
on on hardware (De1SoC FPGA + Arm A9 CPU).
