Build script that does nothing

Eventually we will want a build script that enables Serde impls for i128
and u128. As a first step here is a build script that does nothing to
see whether we can roll this out without breaking anyone's workflow,
without having a supported feature at stake in the event that it needs
to be rolled back.
