b640892f04 libdnf-sys: Drop C API, replace with cxx.rs bridge
Right now, we're using libdnf APIs from Rust via hand-crafted `extern C`
interfaces, which is extra dangerous because there is no signature
checking that happens at compile-time.

Until either we can automate libdnf bindings or use its C++ API directly
via cxx.rs, let's do some basic wrapping in C++ ourselves and use libdnf
through that API only instead. That gives us a lot more confidence and
makes the libdnf API feel more natural to use in Rust.

3a6044a44b rust: move libdnf-sys module to its own crate
This is just a cleaner arrangement to make the separation more explicit.
It also matches what most other wrapper crates do.

One advantage of this is that we can tell cbindgen directly that we
don't want it to ever export symbols from `libdnf-sys`.
