rust-common: Hack around LD_LIBRARY_PATH issues on centos7

When building cargo-native on centos7 with buildtools tarball installed,
we see failures:

/bin/sh: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/reproducible-centos/build/build-st/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/cargo-native/1.54.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5)

We also see this for libstd-rs once cargo-native is fixed.

The reason for this is that the wrapper script
cargo-native/1.54.0-r0/wrapper/target-rust-ccld has /bin/sh as it's
interpreter and cargo calls this with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to include the
recipe-sysroot-native. The host /bin/sh links to libtinfo from the host
but it finds the version in the sysroot which needs a newer libc. This
results in the above error since the loader is an older libc and the two
are incompatible.

Our ccld wrapper calls gcc/ld which don't need the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
variable set. We can't patch this out the source since we're using
a prebuilt binary to generate a new cargo binary so this is impossible
to bootstrap.

Instead, put a binary wrapper into place which removes LD_LIBRARY_PATH
from the environment before calling the original wrapper (left in shell
as it is simpler to maintain).
