The rationale is that xous-rs should have only architecture
specific code, e.g.: riscv, arm, x86, etc. To make other
crates that depend on it not specify the features.
This could be useful when using xous-rs with `libstd`
for example.

This allows for a more reliable detection of target_os configuration
in build scripts. The target is inconsistent between some architectures,
notably armv7a is `armv7a-none-eabi` skipping the `unknown` (the vendor,
I guess) part. This happen with some of the unrelated Cortex-M targets
present, and others may also be.

This macro will be removed, since it is no longer necessary. Remove this
macro across the project and replace it with a standard `main()`
function.

Each Cargo.toml now includes a comment which remnids maintainers
of the dependency policy for Xous (that is, nail down every dependency
to the minor number).
Versions are pinned down to the minor number. Yes, this means that
we don't automatically pull in features and bug updates from crates.io,
but it also means we don't pull in new attack surfaces and code that
hasn't been tested or reviewed. I'd like this process to be very deliberate
and not automatic for Xous.
The `rand` crate is almost pinned down to a single version, except
for an odd dependency that's pulled in by hosted mode that depends
on rand 0.8.4 via a subordinate dependency via the `tempfile` crate.
Pondering if it's worth it to try and eliminate that, because the
0.8.4 version doesn't get compiled into any version that touches
real hardware. It just makes it harder to analyze the Cargo.lock
file, mostly. I think I'll leave it as-is.
