By using cross, the build of the artifact will have a more stable ABI because the docker image has a well defined version of libraries that are defined, meaning that updates to "ubuntu-latest" won't impact the compatible version of the built binaries.
This change defines the "toolchain" for rust, meaning that new versions of rust won't automatically be picked up (unless changed to stable).
This also removes the action-rs uses, because they are deprecated and the github actions install rustup by default
