Update the minimum supported Rust version to 1.29.
We no longer need the Ubuntu LTS restriction, so now the only only constraint I'm aware of is Firefox's policy. Fortunately, that tracks the latest stable delayed by only two weeks. So this puts is at Rust 1.29 now.

### Rustc version support
|
||||
|
||||
Our current policy is to support the version of Rustc that ships with the
|
||||
latest Ubuntu LTS release, as well as the current stable version. This means
|
||||
we don't use some of the very latest released Rust features.
|
||||
Cranelift supports stable Rust, and follows the
|
||||
[Rust Update Policy for Firefox].
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the developer scripts depend on nightly Rust, for example to run
|
||||
clippy and other tools, however we avoid depending on these for the main
|
||||
build.
|
||||
|
||||
That said, if there are any new Rust features that would be particularly
|
||||
valuable to use, please bring them up, as we may be able to find ways to
|
||||
accommodate them.
