Description Patrick McLean gentoo-dev

We probably should package bindgen since the kernel rust support requires it
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen

# make LLVM=1 rustavailable
***
*** Rust bindings generator 'bindgen' could not be found.

make: *** [Makefile:1800: rustavailable] Error 1

    dev-util/bindgen: new package, add 0.56.0, 0.62.0, 0.63.0
    
    bindgen is required to build Linux kernel 6.1+ with rust[1].
    * 0.56.0 is the recommended version to build kernel[2]
    * 0.62.0 is the previous latest version building kernel 6.1+ successfully
    * 0.63.0 is the current latest version[3], however does not allow to
      build kernel due to command line changes
