Rust bindings for the FBInk C library

Rust bindings for FBInk intended for use with Kobo devices.

There are unsafe bindings generated with bindgen, and an incomplete safe Rust wrapper.

I have very limited experience with C and unsafe Rust, so use at your own risk!

It won't work if built with a standard Rust toolchain. The Dockerfile bundles an appropriate toolchain. Use it with cargo-cross by running e.g:

cross build --release --example hello --target armv7-unknown-linux-musleabihf

To use in another crate you'll need to copy Cross.toml, Dockerfile and .cargo/config.toml

If you have issues building it, you can try using an alternative fbink-sys crate that uses a different method for compiling FBInk. Changing the fbink-rs crate from this repo to depend on that in its Cargo.toml should work if you can successfully build their fbink-sys
