The RUST_TARGET variable only applies when cross-compiling. Build
systems like launchpad and copr don't cross compile, but also need
pre-vendored rust sources as they don't allow network access during the
build stage. In this situation, the RUST_TARGET variable is empty.
This will fix our nightly PPA builds on Launchpad, and is supported by
additional changes in my
pivx-packaging
repo, as well as a newrust-vendored-sources
repo, both hosted on launchpad.A separate PR will
be made to fix our nightly Snap builds, which will either entail re-working
how those builds are done, or rewrite the
rust.mk
descriptor.
