rust: switch hg-core and hg-cpython to rust 2018 edition

Many interesting changes have happened in Rust since the Oxidation Plan was
introduced, like the 2018 edition and procedural macros:

    - Opting in to the 2018 edition is a clear benefit in terms of future
      proofing, new (nice to have) syntactical sugar notwithstanding. It
      also has a new non-lexical, non-AST based borrow checker that has
      fewer bugs(!) and allows us to write correct code that in some cases
      would have been rejected by the old one.
    - Procedural macros allow us to use the PyO3 crate which maintainers have
      expressed the clear goal of compiling on stable, which would help in
      code maintainability compared to rust-cpython.

In this patch are the following changes:
    - Removing most `extern crate` uses
    - Updating `use` clauses (`crate` keyword, nested `use`)
    - Removing `mod.rs` in favor of an aptly named module file

Like discussed in the mailing list (
https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2019-July/132316.html
), until Rust integration in Mercurial is considered to be out of the
experimental phase, the maximum version of Rust allowed is whatever the latest
version Debian packages.
