Looking at the FFe, I think this is fine: changes affect the build
system in a way that should not change actual behavior of the software.
FFe approved.

Bug description:
  Hello,

  For the past cycle I have been working on patching in cargo-auditable
  support to dh-cargo. Cargo-auditable is a tool that embeds dependency
  metadata into Rust binaries.[1] This is invaluable in the aftermath of
  a CVE, as it lets you know at-a-glance if a binary may have been
  compromised. It's also great for curious users!

  For 26.04, cargo-auditable will be *opt-in.* Developers of Rust
  packages that build using dh-cargo can export
  `UBUNTU_ENABLE_CARGO_AUDITABLE=1` near the top of their d/rules, and
  including `Build-Depends: cargo-auditable` in d/control.

  ## FFe ##

  This bug tracks the FFe to enable cargo-auditable for the following popular Rust packages:
  - rust-alacritty
  - rust-bat
  - rust-du-dust
  - rust-eza
  - rust-fd-find
  - rust-hyperfine
  - rust-ripgrep
  - rust-sd
  - rust-sudo-rs

  This FFe is necessary because getting cargo-auditable support in is a
  26.04 roadmap item, and we want developers to have easy access to
  tools to make their packages more secure.

  You can see the packages building here:

  test

  There is no upstream changelog, as this is an Ubuntu-only change.
