Ensure that an artifact is indeed no_std

[gnzlbg]

It would be good if cargo build would have a --nostd option that would ensure that the resulting artifact doesn't indeed link against the std library and fails if this is the case.

To check this, it needs to at least check that rustc is not called with the std feature enabled. A bonus point would be to use nm on Linux and MacOSX (and its equivalent on windows) to check that the artifact does not contain any std symbols.
