rust: warn about `bindgen` versions 0.66.0 and 0.66.1
`bindgen` versions 0.66.0 and 0.66.1 panic due to C string literals with NUL characters [1]: panicked at .cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/bindgen-0.66.0/codegen/mod.rs:717:71: called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: FromBytesWithNulError { kind: InteriorNul(4) } Thus, in preparation for supporting several `bindgen` versions, add a version check to warn the user about it. Since some distributions may have patched it (e.g. Debian did [2]), check if that seems to be the case (after the version check matches), in order to avoid printing a warning in that case. We could make it an error, but 1) it is going to fail anyway later in the build, 2) we would disable `RUST`, which is also painful, 3) someone could have patched it in a way that still makes our extra check fail (however unlikely), 4) the interior NUL may go away in the headers (however unlikely). Thus just warn about it so that users know why it is failing. In addition, add a couple tests for the new cases.
