Open Source Code Search has a strange bug where, occasionally, anchors for cross-references can be clickable even when the definition node (including an anchor node) for the target of the cross reference does not exist. Clicking the cross reference anchor brings up the References panel which shows an error because the definition node does not exist (we don't index the Rust standard library, so we can't emit definition nodes and anchors for it). An example of this is here: https://cs.opensource.google/fuchsia/fuchsia/+/main:src/connectivity/network/dns/src/main.rs;l=30;bpv=0;bpt=1 (hover over the "std" and try clicking on it)
This PR adds an optional flag to the Rust indexer that disables emitting any cross references to the standard library, which should mitigate this issue.
