Miguel Ojeda f135c9dd62 rust: workaround rustdoc target modifiers bug
commit abbf9a44944171ca99c150adad9361a2f517d3b6 upstream.

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (released 2025-06-26), `rustdoc` complains
about a target modifier mismatch in configurations where `-Zfixed-x18`
is passed:

    error: mixing `-Zfixed-x18` will cause an ABI mismatch in crate `rust_out`
      |
      = help: the `-Zfixed-x18` flag modifies the ABI so Rust crates compiled with different values of this flag cannot be used together safely
      = note: unset `-Zfixed-x18` in this crate is incompatible with `-Zfixed-x18=` in dependency `core`
      = help: set `-Zfixed-x18=` in this crate or unset `-Zfixed-x18` in `core`
      = help: if you are sure this will not cause problems, you may use `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=fixed-x18` to silence this error

The reason is that `rustdoc` was not passing the target modifiers when
configuring the session options, and thus it would report a mismatch
that did not exist as soon as a target modifier is used in a dependency.

We did not notice it in the kernel until now because `-Zfixed-x18` has
been a target modifier only since 1.88.0 (and it is the only one we use
so far).

The issue has been reported upstream [1] and a fix has been submitted
[2], including a test similar to the kernel case.

  [ This is now fixed upstream (thanks Guillaume for the quick review),
    so it will be fixed in Rust 1.90.0 (expected 2025-09-18).

      - Miguel ]

Meanwhile, conditionally pass `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=fixed-x18`
to workaround the issue on our side.
