I would like to throw a third option into the Mix: Meson.  It not only
supports Rust[1], but also has a wrapper for the cargo build system[2],
which while experimental should help us translating all the cargo bits
to Meson ones.  At least the former is actively being used in Mesa[3],
so it works as a proof of concept – for the latter, it appears that
Mesa uses hand-written meson build files.

Cheers
