Just one thing, the Cargo.toml includes a version under which the crate would be
published.  I presume the version would be the same as the one of the project
itself, i.e. when releasing libguestfs-x.y.z, we publish guestfs-rs-x.y.z to
crates.io.  To make them in sync, it might be better to do it the same way
nbdkit does it, having Cargo.toml.in which is taken and the version placeholder
is replaced by the actual version.
