`guix package -s cargo`
This does not return rust even though cargo is an output of rust. The
manual says it looks at name, synopsis, or description. So this is not
a surprise.
Is there a way to search for programs that are an output of a package?
I looked at "4.2 Invoking ‘guix package’" in the manual but it is not
covered there.

No, not yet.
This has been discussed multiple times on the Dev list but no patches has been sent yet.
The best choices right now is to ask here or search on another distro.

I opened a bug report here for the issue in which a package's outputs
are not included in the search results:
https://bugs.gnu.org/35588
And we've fixed it in commit 387e6b9e340ce4b401f220f72881415623a466f7.
Thank you for reporting the issue, mikadoZero!
