rust: add qdev Device derive macro

Add derive macro for declaring qdev properties directly above the field
definitions. To do this, we split DeviceImpl::properties method on a
separate trait so we can implement only that part in the derive macro
expansion (we cannot partially implement the DeviceImpl trait).

Adding a `property` attribute above the field declaration will generate
a `qemu_api::bindings::Property` array member in the device's property
list.
