Marshall Pierce 0e2fc80509 Rust tools for working with Realtek firmware
Further adventures in porting tools to Rust to flesh out the supported
API.

These tools didn't feel like `example`s, so I made a top level `bumble`
CLI tool that hosts them all as subcommands. I also moved the usb probe
not-really-an-`example` into it as well. I'm open to suggestions on how
best to organize the subcommands to make them intuitive to explore with
`--help`, and how to leave room for other future tools.

I also adopted the per-OS project data dir for a default firmware
location so that users can download once and then use those .bin files
from anywhere without having to sprinkle .bin files in project
directories or reaching inside the python package dir hierarchy.

# What is this?
Rust wrappers around the [Bumble](https://github.com/google/bumble) Python API.
Method calls are mapped to the equivalent Python, and return types adapted where
relevant.
See the CLI in `src/main.rs` or the `examples` directory for how to use the
Bumble API.
# Usage
Set up a virtualenv for Bumble, or otherwise have an isolated Python environment
for Bumble and its dependencies.
Due to Python being
[picky about how its sys path is set up](https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/issues/1741,
it's necessary to explicitly point to the virtualenv's `site-packages`. Use
suitable virtualenv paths as appropriate for your OS, as seen here running
the `battery_client` example:
```
PYTHONPATH=..:~/.virtualenvs/bumble/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ \
cargo run --example battery_client -- \
--transport android-netsim --target-addr F0:F1:F2:F3:F4:F5
```
Run the corresponding `battery_server` Python example, and launch an emulator in
Android Studio (currently, Canary is required) to run netsim.
# CLI
Explore the available subcommands:
```
PYTHONPATH=..:[virtualenv site-packages] \
cargo run --features bumble-tools --bin bumble -- --help
```
# Development
Run the tests:
```
PYTHONPATH=.. cargo test
```
Check lints:
```
cargo clippy --all-targets
```
## Code gen
To have the fastest startup while keeping the build simple, code gen for
assigned numbers is done with the `gen_assigned_numbers` tool. It should
be re-run whenever the Python assigned numbers are changed. To ensure that the
generated code is kept up to date, the Rust data is compared to the Python
in tests at `pytests/assigned_numbers.rs`.
To regenerate the assigned number tables based on the Python codebase:
```
PYTHONPATH=.. cargo run --bin gen-assigned-numbers --features bumble-codegen
```
