This updates the "How to backport Rust" to give more up-to-date details on a few things:

  • Clarify when it is necessary to create a Launchpad bug.
  • More context about the "orig tarball".
  • Info about how to build the "orig-vendor tarball".

This isn't intended as a complete refresh, as there are still more things which could use updating, e.g. when it comes to the format of Rust package version strings and when it is best to build locally vs. using a individual PPA or the staging PPA.
