Crate readme

Short description Provide high quality Rust bindings to V8's C++ API.

Long description Rusty V8 offers Rust bindings for V8, aligning its major version with Chrome's release cycle. Users can build V8 from source or use prebuilt binaries. Environment variables control the build process, requiring Python and curl, among other dependencies. The crate is designed to avoid significant call overhead and does not rely on separate binary builds for V8, ensuring a more secure and flexible integration.

Features • V8_FROM_SOURCE support • Experimental features like v8_enable_sandbox • Release builds as default • Static libraries for various versions available on GitHub • Cargo build with no additional overhead
