Include rust as an externally maintained procedural language
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/external-pl.html Description: The documentation [1] contains a list of independently maintained procedural languages. Recently, PL/Rust [2] has reached its version 1.0 [3] and appears to be stable. Major companies have expressed interest in the extension. Kiwi Copple, the founder of Supabase, has stated his company is researching the language for his platform [4]. Meanwhile, Amazon's RDS team has already announced support for PL/Rust as a trusted language extension [5] on their PostgreSQL instances [6]. Considering the increasing support and stability for PL/Rust, it should be referenced within Postgresql's docs [1].

There's an up-to-date list of the different PL's in on this page in the wiki: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PL_Matrix Similar to this thread[1], I wonder if we just link to the wiki from the documentation, given it will be easier to maintain the list from there.
