Use Rust compiler 1.77.1 on python ci runs

[thunderbiscuit]

This PR initially tried to remove the "unused" action toolchain@v1. This turned out not to be true, because while the exact Rust compiler version is now defined in the scripts, Rust must be installed already for those steps to have access to rustup in the first place.

The one improvement done here is that the correct version of Rust is downloaded in the first place on the CI, so we don't download the sable version only to then download a second version when the shell script starts. We save one round of downloads. Note that the rustup command to use 1.77.1 must stay in the shell scripts for people building locally.

Fixes #404

Walkthrough

The recent updates involve streamlining the Rust compiler version definition in Python CI workflows within GitHub Actions. The changes focus on replacing explicit Rust toolchain configurations previously set using actions-rs/toolchain@v1 with direct installation of Rust version 1.77.1. This consolidation aims to standardize the approach to defining the Rust compiler version across various CI workflows.

Assessment against linked issues

Objective	Addressed	Explanation
Python CI workflows use actions-rs/toolchain@v1 but the scripts define the Rust compiler version explicitly	✅

Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

Note: Auto-reply has been disabled for this repository by the repository owner. The CodeRabbit bot will not respond to your replies unless it is explicitly tagged.

• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
  • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
