rust: update the minimum version of Rust

Debian Bullseye has just been released, and it carries `rustc 1.48.0`.

This actually implies a regression that we can't really do anything about in
`rhg`. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88825. In short, closed (or
bad) standard file descriptors are reopened silently with no way of telling by
the Rust runtime before `main` is executed. This means that closed fds are not
forwarded to the subprocess we run in case of fallback. This is a bit sad, but
probably not something worth worrying too much about.

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
