Gary Guo 743766565d rust: bindings: rename const binding using sed
Currently, for `const`s that bindgen doesn't recognise, we define a
helper constant with

    const <TYPE> BINDINGS_<NAME> = <NAME>;

in `bindings_helper.h` and then we put

    pub const <NAME>: <TYPE> = BINDINGS_<NAME>;

in `bindings/lib.rs`. This is fine since we currently only have 3
constants that are defined this way, but is going to be more annoying
when more constants are added since every new constant needs to be
defined in two places.

This patch changes the way we define constant helpers to

    const <TYPE> RUST_CONST_HELPER_<NAME> = <NAME>;

and then use `sed` to postprocess Rust code generated by bindgen to
remove the distinct prefix, so users of the `bindings` crate can refer
to the name directly.
