Remove vendored dependencies
While it appears that by now we actually can get successful builds without Cargo insisting on Internet access by virtue of using the --frozen flag, maintaining vendored dependencies is somewhat of a pain point. This state will also get worse with upcoming changes that replace argparse in favor of structopt and pull in a slew of new dependencies by doing so. Then there is also the repository structure aspect, which is non-standard due to the way we vendor dependencies and a potential source of confusion. In order to fix these problems, this change removes all the vendored dependencies we have. Delete subrepo argparse/:argparse Delete subrepo base32/:base32 Delete subrepo cc/:cc Delete subrepo cfg-if/:cfg-if Delete subrepo getrandom/:getrandom Delete subrepo lazy-static/:lazy-static Delete subrepo libc/:libc Delete subrepo nitrokey-sys/:nitrokey-sys Delete subrepo nitrokey/:nitrokey Delete subrepo rand/:rand

-# cc-rs
-
-A library to compile C/C++/assembly into a Rust library/application.
-
-[Documentation](https://docs.rs/cc)
-
-A simple library meant to be used as a build dependency with Cargo packages in
-order to build a set of C/C++ files into a static archive. This crate calls out
-to the most relevant compiler for a platform, for example using `cl` on MSVC.
-
-> **Note**: this crate was recently renamed from the `gcc` crate, so if you're
-> looking for the `gcc` crate you're in the right spot!
-
-## Using cc-rs
-
-First, you'll want to both add a build script for your crate (`build.rs`) and
-also add this crate to your `Cargo.toml` via:
-
-```toml
-[build-dependencies]
-cc = "1.0"
-```
-
-Next up, you'll want to write a build script like so:
-
-```rust,no_run
-// build.rs
-
-fn main() {
- cc::Build::new()
- .file("foo.c")
- .file("bar.c")
- .compile("foo");
-}
-```
-
-And that's it! Running `cargo build` should take care of the rest and your Rust
-application will now have the C files `foo.c` and `bar.c` compiled into a file
-named libfoo.a. You can call the functions in Rust by declaring functions in
-your Rust code like so:
-
-```
-extern {
- fn foo_function();
- fn bar_function();
-}
-
-pub fn call() {
- unsafe {
- foo_function();
- bar_function();
- }
-}
-
-fn main() {
- // ...
-}
-```
-
-## External configuration via environment variables
-
-To control the programs and flags used for building, the builder can set a
-number of different environment variables.
-
-* `CFLAGS` - a series of space separated flags passed to compilers. Note that
- individual flags cannot currently contain spaces, so doing
- something like: "-L=foo\ bar" is not possible.
-* `CC` - the actual C compiler used. Note that this is used as an exact
- executable name, so (for example) no extra flags can be passed inside
- this variable, and the builder must ensure that there aren't any
- trailing spaces. This compiler must understand the `-c` flag. For
- certain `TARGET`s, it also is assumed to know about other flags (most
- common is `-fPIC`).
-* `AR` - the `ar` (archiver) executable to use to build the static library.
-* `CRATE_CC_NO_DEFAULTS` - the default compiler flags may cause conflicts in some cross compiling scenarios. Setting this variable will disable the generation of default compiler flags.
-
-Each of these variables can also be supplied with certain prefixes and suffixes,
-in the following prioritized order:
-
-1. `<var>_<target>` - for example, `CC_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
-2. `<var>_<target_with_underscores>` - for example, `CC_x86_64_unknown_linux_gnu`
-3. `<build-kind>_<var>` - for example, `HOST_CC` or `TARGET_CFLAGS`
-4. `<var>` - a plain `CC`, `AR` as above.
-
-If none of these variables exist, cc-rs uses built-in defaults
-
-In addition to the above optional environment variables, `cc-rs` has some
-functions with hard requirements on some variables supplied by [cargo's
-build-script driver][cargo] that it has the `TARGET`, `OUT_DIR`, `OPT_LEVEL`,
-and `HOST` variables.
-

-
-## Optional features
-
-### Parallel
-
-Currently cc-rs supports parallel compilation (think `make -jN`) but this
-feature is turned off by default. To enable cc-rs to compile C/C++ in parallel,
-you can change your dependency to:
-
-```toml
-[build-dependencies]
-cc = { version = "1.0", features = ["parallel"] }
-```
-
-By default cc-rs will limit parallelism to `$NUM_JOBS`, or if not present it
-will limit it to the number of cpus on the machine. If you are using cargo,
-use `-jN` option of `build`, `test` and `run` commands as `$NUM_JOBS`
-is supplied by cargo.
-
-## Compile-time Requirements
-
-To work properly this crate needs access to a C compiler when the build script
-is being run. This crate does not ship a C compiler with it. The compiler
-required varies per platform, but there are three broad categories:
-
-* Unix platforms require `cc` to be the C compiler. This can be found by
- installing cc/clang on Linux distributions and Xcode on OSX, for example.
-* Windows platforms targeting MSVC (e.g. your target triple ends in `-msvc`)
- require `cl.exe` to be available and in `PATH`. This is typically found in
- standard Visual Studio installations and the `PATH` can be set up by running
- the appropriate developer tools shell.
-* Windows platforms targeting MinGW (e.g. your target triple ends in `-gnu`)
- require `cc` to be available in `PATH`. We recommend the
- [MinGW-w64](http://mingw-w64.org) distribution, which is using the
- [Win-builds](http://win-builds.org) installation system.
- You may also acquire it via
- [MSYS2](http://msys2.github.io), as explained [here][msys2-help]. Make sure
- to install the appropriate architecture corresponding to your installation of
- rustc. GCC from older [MinGW](http://www.mingw.org) project is compatible
- only with 32-bit rust compiler.

-
-## C++ support
-
-`cc-rs` supports C++ libraries compilation by using the `cpp` method on
-`Build`:
-
-```rust,no_run
-fn main() {
- cc::Build::new()
- .cpp(true) // Switch to C++ library compilation.
- .file("foo.cpp")
- .compile("libfoo.a");
-}
-```
-
-When using C++ library compilation switch, the `CXX` and `CXXFLAGS` env
-variables are used instead of `CC` and `CFLAGS` and the C++ standard library is
-linked to the crate target.
-
-## CUDA C++ support
-
-`cc-rs` also supports compiling CUDA C++ libraries by using the `cuda` method
-on `Build` (currently for GNU/Clang toolchains only):
-
-```rust,no_run
-fn main() {
- cc::Build::new()
- // Switch to CUDA C++ library compilation using NVCC.
- .cuda(true)
- // Generate code for Maxwell (GTX 970, 980, 980 Ti, Titan X).
- .flag("-gencode").flag("arch=compute_52,code=sm_52")
- // Generate code for Maxwell (Jetson TX1).
- .flag("-gencode").flag("arch=compute_53,code=sm_53")
- // Generate code for Pascal (GTX 1070, 1080, 1080 Ti, Titan Xp).
- .flag("-gencode").flag("arch=compute_61,code=sm_61")
- // Generate code for Pascal (Tesla P100).
- .flag("-gencode").flag("arch=compute_60,code=sm_60")
- // Generate code for Pascal (Jetson TX2).
- .flag("-gencode").flag("arch=compute_62,code=sm_62")
- .file("bar.cu")
- .compile("libbar.a");
-}
-```
