auto merge of #10020 : mletterle/rust/documentation-fixes, r=thestinger

I'm planning on doing more updates, but the section in the tutorial stood out at me since the 'rust' tool no longer exists, this should probably be removed to lessen confusion.

-## Using the rust tool
-
-While using `rustc` directly to generate your executables, and then
-running them manually is a perfectly valid way to test your code,
-for smaller projects, prototypes, or if you're a beginner, it might be
-more convenient to use the `rust` tool.
-
-The `rust` tool provides central access to the other rust tools,
-as well as handy shortcuts for directly running source files.
-For example, if you have a file `foo.rs` in your current directory,
-`rust run foo.rs` would attempt to compile it and, if successful,
-directly run the resulting binary.
-
-To get a list of all available commands, simply call `rust` without any
-argument.
