project-model: when using `rust-project.json`, prefer the sysroot-defined rustc over discovery in `$PATH`
At the moment, rust-analyzer discovers `rustc` via the `$PATH` even if the `sysroot` field is defined in a `rust-project.json`. However, this does not work for users who do not have rustup installed, resulting in any `cfg`-based inference in rust-analzyer not working correctly. In my (decently naive!) opinion, it makes more sense to rely on the `sysroot` field in the `rust-project.json`.
One might ask "why not add `rustc` to the `$PATH`?" That is a reasonable question, but that doesn't work for my use case:
- The path to the sysroot in my employer's monorepo changes depending on which platform a user is on. For example, if they're on Linux, they'd want to use the sysroot defined at path `a`, whereas if they're on macOS, they'd want to use the sysroot at path `b` (I wrote the sysroot resolution functionality [here](
