Rust Bindings Improvements

Hey rwmjones, not sure how many people are using the Rust bindings, but I am and noticed a few pain points that I think I could help out with if you're interested. Wanted to ask ahead of time if there is interest in improvements and making the Rust code a bit more idiomatic/ergonomic before I spend too much time on it.

[PATCH nbdkit v2 0/5] vddk: do_extents: Avoid reading partial chunk beyond the end of the disk
by Richard W.M. Jones 06 Jan '25

In v2: - Cache the disk size in the handle, as Eric suggested in his review of v1 - Add a new patch to bail from the function if we hit the req_one condition. I wasn't convinced that we would always do the right thing in the req_one case. In particular, that we might add the extra extent in this case (which would be wrong since it would extend from the end of the last req_one extent to the end of the request). Bailing from the whole function avoids this possibility. - Added Acked-by to a couple of patches

[PATCH nbdkit 0/3] vddk: do_extents: Avoid reading partial chunk beyond the end of the disk

Patches 1 & 2 are just clean up. Patch 3 fixes this annoying VDDK bug (I think): https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-71694
