When bcachefs was a C program that had some functions implemented in Rust, it was necessary to make a static library containing the Rust functions available for the C program to link. Now that bcachefs is a Rust program, that library is no longer needed. Instead, the Rust executable links in libbachefs.a. This patch updates the crate structure to reflect that. The command functions are moved into their own module. There could be a need to create a "libbachefs-tools" library in the future that exposes an API for bcachefs functionality to other userspace programs. That will be a different, external API as opposed to the previous library functions which were an internal API for the bcachefs tool itself.

Userspace tools and docs for bcachefs
Bcachefs is an advanced new filesystem for Linux, with an emphasis on reliability and robustness and the complete set of features one would expect from a modern filesystem.
This repo primarily consists of the following:
- bcachefs tool, the reason this repo exists.
- {mkfs,mount,fsck}.bcachefs utils, which is just wrappers calling the corresponding subcommands in the main tool
- docs in the form of man-pages and a user manual
Please refer to the main site for getting started An in-depth user manual is (also) found on the official website
