Update Rust docs page (#7296)

I think these changes reflect the current state, but I found it hard to
track the state of some of the planned work. Hence why it'd be good to
have it documented :)

I also expanded some sections that I found misleading, as somebody
familiar with Rust and FlatBuffers separately. Parts of these pages seem
to be aimed at people familiar with FlatBuffers (ie via the other
documentation pages) but not each language, which I'm trying to
preserve. However, Rust does some things differently, and as somebody
with expectations about how typical Rust APIs work the discussion of
threading made me wonder what was different.

FlatBuffers is a cross platform serialization library architected for maximum memory efficiency. It allows you to directly access serialized data without parsing/unpacking it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility.
