feat(codegen): native typed events for the Rust generator
Adds native (zero-CBOR) event support to the Rust generator, mirroring the
cpp_native / Go event path: a per-event `add_<wire>_listener` registrar takes a
closure, boxes it, and registers it through the bare `<lib>_add_event_listener`
(native) entry point. The extern "C" trampoline reads the payload as the raw
C-POD struct and hands the consumer a borrowed idiomatic value via from_c — no
serialization on the hot path.

The node owns the boxed closures in a Mutex<HashMap<id, Box<dyn Any>>> keyed by
listener id so they outlive the call, and `remove_event_listener` drops them and
calls the bare remove entry point. Event externs are only emitted when the
library declares events, so event-free crates stay minimal.

Verified end-to-end: the demo registers a listener, echo fires on_echo_fired
inline, the typed EchoEvent reaches the closure, and removal returns true.

# Rust bindings — native (generated)
**Generated** native (zero-serialization) Rust crate for the timer library — the
Rust counterpart of `c_bindings` / `go_bindings` / `cpp_native_bindings`, and the
native sibling of the CBOR crate in [`../rust_bindings`](../rust_bindings).
| File | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `src/ffi.rs` | `#[repr(C)]` POD mirrors + `extern "C"` native entry points. |
| `src/types.rs` | Idiomatic structs + `to_c`/`from_c` (a holder owns the `CString`s for the call). |
| `src/api.rs` | `<Lib>Node` — methods marshal typed args in / read typed struct returns out; blocking via `std::sync::mpsc`. No CBOR. |
| `examples/demo.rs` | A small consumer. |
```rust
let node = MyTimerNode::new(TimerConfig { name: "my-app".into() })?;
println!("{}", node.version()?);
let r = node.echo(EchoRequest { message: "hello".into(), delay_ms: 5 })?; // -> EchoResponse
```
Regenerate with `nimble genbindings_rust_native`.
## Status
Requests are fully supported: scalar / string / bool / float / nested struct
**and now sequences (`Vec`) and optionals (`Option`)** — create, version, echo,
complex, schedule all generate and round-trip typed values. `to_c` returns a
holder that owns the `CString`s and C-array backing (heap, so the C struct's raw
pointers stay valid across the move and for the call).
Native typed events are supported too: `add_<event>_listener` takes a closure
receiving the payload as a borrowed idiomatic struct (the trampoline reads the
raw C-POD directly — no CBOR), the handle goes through `remove_event_listener`,
and the node owns the boxed closures for their lifetime.
Still to come: the native-bare / `_cbor` filename reconciliation.
Linking is left to the consumer (`-L <dir> -l my_timer` + rpath, as in
`examples/demo.rs`); a build.rs that compiles the dylib can be added later.
