Bug#1008813: ITP: cargo-strip -- subcommand that reduces the size of Rust binaries

Hello all,

That means Rust >= 1.59 has that feature bundled into it, so
cargo-strip is not needed anymore.

I've spoken to Josenilson and explained that considering the next
Debian stable will be shipped with Rust >= 1.59, we should not package
cargo-strip.
