Auto merge of #2495 - RalfJung:ra, r=RalfJung

add ./miri cargo for RA to invoke

RA expects a check command to check *individual workspaces*, whereas `./miri` is designed to check/build/test all parts of Miri. So add a new `./miri cargo` that performs just a single cargo invocation, but with the right env vars so that the build cache can be shared with `./miri check`.
