Add Rust (html5ever) to benchmark comparison scripts

- Add rust_benchmark/ with Cargo project for html5ever benchmarking
- Update compare.py to run Rust benchmark alongside Swift/Python/JS
- Update memory_compare.py to measure Rust memory usage
- Add Benchmarks/rust_benchmark/target/ to .gitignore

Rust is ~4.3x faster than Swift and uses less memory.
