Fixed types

Add checks for rustup and if toolchain is linked

Fortified rustup/directory checks; made other suggested changes

Added check for output status

Remove output of rustup from console

Made suggested change

Deleted confusing comment

Fixed compiler error; removed extra declaration

Refactored to smaller components; made suggested changes

Automate toolchain linking for stage 1 builds
