[binutils-gdb] Convert Rust to use discriminated unions

Convert Rust to use discriminated unions

A Rust enum is, essentially, a discriminated union.  Currently the
Rust language support handles Rust enums locally, in rust-lang.c.
However, because I am changing the Rust compiler to use
DW_TAG_variant* to represent enums, it seemed better to have a single
internal representation for Rust enums in gdb.

This patch implements this idea by moving the current Rust enum
handling code to dwarf2read.  This allows the simplification of some
parts of rust-lang.c as well.
