Figure out what the fuck is going on with our current GPS navigation, and figure out how to do it with up-to-date not old software

Potential Plan

We might have a way to resolve this...

The Problem

We're currently generating Python bindings to some old-ass C code using a program called swig. That's bad, as swig seems to be unmaintained.

Solution

Instead of making bindings to the code with Python, we can do so with Rust's bindgen tool. It'll be more consistent, easier to work with, and consistent across platforms.

We also gain the ability to test the library using Cargo's integrated testing system.
