Script to add new tor files and modules in rust and/or C

This should support modules that are subsystems and/or optional.

Partial implementation here in my branch add_c_file, which I am currently using. :)

Nick, it looks like add_c_file.py was added in commit 2f31c8146f in 0.4.1.2-alpha.

But it has a bug: the suggested usage fails with:

$ scripts/maint/add_c_file.py ./src/feature/dirauth/ocelot.c
Made files successfully but couldn't identify include.am for ./src/feature/dirauth/ocelot.c
Exit 1

The correct usage has no "./":

$ scripts/maint/add_c_file.py src/feature/dirauth/ocelot.c

We should fix the usage, or make topdir_file() use python's canonical path functions.

Right; add_c_file.py is only a partial implementation of this feature. We also need a way to add new modules, a way to add headers only, a way to add rust modules, and more.

I opened #31335 (moved) and #31336 (moved) for bugs that we need to fix when we implement this ticket.

Mark a number of current 0.4.2.x "defects" as "enhancements."

Type: defect to enhancement

Defer several enhancements from "new" to 0.4.3.

All 0.4.3.x tickets without 043-must, 043-should, or 043-can are about to be deferred.

We have add_c_file, and we can add a rust version of it once we're seriously working on Rust again.
