Support native simulator.

Rust llvm target x86_64-unknown-none，I actually tested it and it works.

west build -p always -b native_sim/native/64

I'm trying to figure out how to support and Rust target.

Any idea how well the various tests work?

native_sim/native/64 with x86_64-unknown-none No problem.

native_sim with i686-unknown-linux-gnu or i686-unknown-linux-musl there is a compilation error.

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I hacked it and it works fine.

#[no_mangle]
extern "C" fn rust_eh_personality() {}

there are no other problems, but I don't know how to integrate it better. So there is no pr.

I also briefly tested the esp series chips and there were no problems.

The esp chip involves the esp toolchain, and the addition of the native simulator does not involve anything else.

In fact, supporting esp chips only requires a small modification after enabling the esp rust toolchain.

Also, ARCH_POSIX doesn't imply x86. But, we should at least be able to narrow it down a bit, perhaps x86-64, i686 (x86-32), and arm64? That would cover most Linux and Mac machines.

I'll be real curious if the embassy executor I've added will work. As long as k_thread_suspend and k_thread_resume work, as well as timers, this should be fine.

x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu also works, so long as you conditionally don't overwrite the panic handler in the zephyr crate and change samples to use std. e.g.

-#![no_std]
+#![cfg_attr(not(CONFIG_BOARD_NATIVE_SIM), no_std)]

Part of me thinks targets with std support might be better for native_sim since I think you'd still be able to develop no_std crates / applications, but allow yourself to make simulation backends and stuff using std, but maybe it feels a little messy.

This issue was vaguely worded but I think to some level though it is done/landed, yes?
