Description

built from master:

>~/src/flatbuffers/grpc/samples/greeter$ ../../../build/flatc --grpc --rust greeter.fbs
../../../build/flatc: warning: GRPC interface generator not implemented for Rust

I know Rust support is new so I wasn't expecting this right away but it would be cool. I use grpc-rs so I was looking for support for that crate but others use grpc-rust.
