Research direction

Start with the cargo plugin's handling of Cargo.lock dependencies and compare this report with the cloned BuildStream issue at https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/bst-external/-/issues/48. Reproduce a lockfile dependency sourced from a git repository; done means the plugin processes that dependency successfully.

Description

Some Cargo.lock files can specify dependencies through git repositories, but the cargo plugin is unable to handle this case.
