[Bug 1667662] [NEW] SRU: backport rustc to 14.04 and 16.04

[Matthias Klose]

Public bug reported:

newer firefox versions will require rust as a build dependency. Backport
the recent rustc version and cmake, binutils, llvm versions from xenial
to trusty.  It looks like xenial is recent and only needs the llvm
backport.
