Fiona Klute (Othermo GmbH) ff7f973a16 package/dracut: disable dracut-cpio if host-rustc is not available
Since upstream commit 89a86dcb0a3248606824de50f5c63f61cfe0369c (first
release: 106) if cargo exists on PATH the Dracut configure script
enables building dracut-cpio by default, and calls "cargo --version"
to check if cargo works. This fails on the autobuilders:

error: rustup could not choose a version of cargo to run, because one wasn't specified explicitly, and no default is configured.
help: run 'rustup default stable' to download the latest stable release of Rust and set it as your default toolchain.
dracut couldn't find cargo for dracut-cpio build

The affected configs either don't have BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC enabled,
or build-time.log.gz shows host-rustc was not installed before the
host-dracut build, so presumably the "cargo" that produces the rustup
error is an external one already installed on the autobuilders.

To fix this, enable dracut-cpio only if BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC=y, and
add a dependency on host-rustc in that case. According to the
documentation [1, see "enhanced_cpio"] dracut-cpio is supposed to
optimize archive creation for copy-on-write filesystems, so it should
not matter much for Buildroot. The --disable-dracut-cpio option was
added in upstream commit 4a4ab928a49e81e02104ec5466160664e59c3965
(same release).
