Alex Crichton f3dfcae202 rustbuild: Start building --enable-extended

This commit adds a new flag to the configure script,
`--enable-extended`, which is intended for specifying a desire to
compile the full suite of Rust tools such as Cargo, the RLS, etc. This
is also an indication that the build system should create combined
installers such as the pkg/exe/msi artifacts.

Currently the `--enable-extended` flag just indicates that combined
installers should be built, and Cargo is itself not compiled just yet
but rather only downloaded from its location. The intention here is to
quickly get to feature parity with the current release process and then
we can start improving it afterwards.

All new files in this PR inside `src/etc/installer` are copied from the
rust-packaging repository.

The Rust Programming Language

This is a compiler for Rust, including standard libraries, tools and documentation. Rust is a systems programming language that is fast, memory safe and multithreaded, but does not employ a garbage collector or otherwise impose significant runtime overhead.

To install to /usr/local (the default), run the included install.sh script:

$ sudo ./install.sh

To uninstall:

$ sudo /usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh

install.sh has a few options, including the possibility to set an installation prefix. You can display these options by running:

$ sudo ./install.sh --help
