Are there any embeddable languages in rust?
The C++ language doesn’t embed Lua, various game engines (and other applications) written in C++ do, using an API binding that provides a C++ wrapper around Lua’s underlying C API. Well there are Lua bindings for Rust as well (as a randomly selected example see hlua), and there are bindings for several other languages as well (like Python).
-
Rust's interface to the Lua programming language is called 'mlua'. not Lust. This should get fixed.
There's an older binding called hlua https://github.com/tomaka/hlua

Does rust have function works like eval?
hlua or rlua are what you want for Lua, rust-cpython or PyO3 for Python, rutie for Ruby, and possibly deno_core for JavaScript.

Moonbit: The fast, compact and user friendly language for WebAssembly
For that world there is also Rhai (https://github.com/rhaiscript/rhai), TypeScript, Scheme, etc.
Though Moonbit does look nice too.

[concept] Modular kernel
The OS would be built in Rust and the module system could be made using ELF executibles (fast, but it could be really hard to implement modules to communicate with the kernel), WASM (can compile from many languages, slower but not too slow, APIs can be simple enough to implement if the correct VM is choses) or even a custom scripting language like rhai (slower, but best way for the implementation [way to connect modules and kernel]).

Godot game engine now has its own foundation
For sure, that's where something like rhai would shine: https://crates.io/crates/rhai
