[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] fix static build

`cargo rustc` only passes the flags (like `target-feature` in this case) for
the final invocation, not for any dependency compilation.
unfortunately, switching to `cargo build` is not straight-forward:
- during a package build, $CARGO is the cargo wrapper which only honors
RUSTFLAGS in its `prepare-debian` invocation
- rustflags in cargo's config.toml are global/per target
- the unstable override that would allow setting them per profile is broken
- and it would only work for the final invocation anyway, just like `cargo rustc`
as a stop-gap measure, let's duplicate and adapt the generated config.toml, and
select it explicitly when doing the static compilation as part of the package
build. manual `make proxmox-backup-client-static` can still just pass RUSTFLAGS
via the environment..

verified that this passes the right --target-feature to the build, and that
code guarded under that feature with an intentionally introduced compilation
error trips up the static client build..
sed is not my strongest suite, so feel free to make that part in d/rules
nicer..
we could also put some of the variables into a shared file source by Makefile
and d/rules, maybe..
