Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda
 "More additions to the Rust core. Importantly, this adds the pin-init
  API, which will be used by other abstractions, such as the
  synchronization ones added here too:

   - pin-init API: a solution for the safe pinned initialization
     problem.

     This allows to reduce the need for 'unsafe' code in the kernel when
     dealing with data structures that require a stable address. Commit
     90e53c5e ("rust: add pin-init API core") contains a nice
     introduction -- here is an example of how it looks like:

        #[pin_data]
        struct Example {
            #[pin]
            value: Mutex<u32>,

            #[pin]
            value_changed: CondVar,
        }

        impl Example {
            fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
                pin_init!(Self {
                    value <- new_mutex!(0),
                    value_changed <- new_condvar!(),
                })
            }
