* js/libgit-rust:
  fixup! common-main: split init and exit code into new files
  Makefile: add option to build and test libgit-rs and libgit-rs-sys
  libgit: add higher-level libgit crate
  libgit-sys: also export some config_set functions
  libgit-sys: introduce Rust wrapper for libgit.a
  common-main: split init and exit code into new files
