docs: enhance Rust guide with CPU optimization instructions

Summary

  • Added a section to the Rust guide that explains how to use the RUSTFLAGS environment variable to specify the target CPU for optimization.
  • Provides examples and instructions for setting RUSTFLAGS for different CPU models, such as Cortex-M33 and Cortex-M55, to generate performance-optimized code.

Impact

  • Enhances the developer's ability to produce more efficient Rust applications on NuttX by leveraging CPU-specific optimizations.
  • No runtime or functional changes; only documentation improvements to guide users in optimizing their build configurations for specific hardware.

Test

local document build

Summary:
- Updated the Rust guide documentation to include X86 and X86_64 platforms in the supported platforms list.
- Ensured that the guide provides accurate and up-to-date information for developers using these new platforms.

Impact:
- Expands the platform support section of the Rust guide, making it more inclusive and useful for a wider range of developers.
- No functional changes to the code itself; this update only affects the documentation.
- Enhances the usability of the guide by providing necessary setup and configuration details for the X86 and X86_64 architectures.

[Experimental Bot, please feedback here]

Yes, this PR appears to meet the NuttX requirements, although it could be slightly improved. Here's a breakdown:

Strengths:

  • Clear Summary: The summary explains the "why," "what," and "how" of the change. While it doesn't link a specific issue, this is understandable for a documentation-only change.
  • Impact is Well-Defined: The impact section clearly addresses most points, highlighting that this is a documentation-only change with no functional impact.
  • Testing Justification: The author confirms local document build testing, which is appropriate for a documentation change. Including the actual build output (even if successful) would further strengthen this section.

Areas for Improvement:

  • Explicit "NO" in Impact: While the impact section is good, explicitly stating "NO" for areas without impact (e.g., "Impact on build: NO") would enhance readability and clarity.
  • More Complete Testing Information: While a local build is sufficient, specifying the OS and build tools used (as requested in the template) would make the testing information more robust. Example: "Build Host: macOS Ventura, clang version X.Y.Z". Also, showing some output, even if just a successful build confirmation, would be helpful.
  • Consider a small example in the documentation itself: A small, runnable example in the updated documentation showcasing the RUSTFLAGS usage would significantly improve the documentation's practical value.

Conclusion:

The PR is generally well-structured and meets the core requirements. Addressing the minor improvements mentioned above would make it even stronger and easier to review.
