Rust client

[offirc2]

We use Rust heavily to interact with LakeFS. However, we were unable to find any published official Rust bindings in crates.io, hence we have to manually check in your OpenAPI spec into our repo, generate bindings and publish to our internal registry ourselves. This also has the big maintenance overhead of us having to keep it up to date with your GitHub. Are there any plans to publish Rust bindings from your side?

@talSofer if you guys release a Rust client officially, then in delta-rs we can start providing native support. Then a commit would be this process:

• create tnx_branch
  • write parquet
  • do write_commit_entry
    • this puts file in tnx branch
    • tries merge tnx branch to source branch
    • if fails, run conflict checker
    • if can be retried, now only rename commit and try again
    • after X retries still fails, then abort by deleting tnx branch

Currently resources are getting waste because we might do multiple concurrent writes that can fail since we can't merge the branches properly.
