Bug#1057431: Fwd: Bug#1057431: fakeupstream.cgi: add support for static.rust-lang.org

[Zixing Liu <zixing.liu@canonical.com>]

Hi Bart,

This is because this website is hosted on AWS S3 and is machine-readable only.
To list the files, you need to either use an S3-compatible tool or visit
https://static.rust-lang.org/?prefix=dist/ to see the file listing in
XML format.

This fakeupstream service is intended for https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rustc.
Because it needs to download the signed source tarball from
https://static.rust-lang.org.

Thanks,
Zixing
