rust: migration: add high-level migration wrappers

Instead of dealing with pre/post callbacks, allow devices to
implement a snapshot/restore mechanism; this has two main
advantages:

- it can be easily implemented via procedural macros

- there can be generic implementations to deal with various
  kinds of interior-mutable containers, from BqlRefCell to Mutex,
  so that C code does not see Rust concepts such as Mutex<>.

Using it is easy; you can implement the snapshot/restore trait
ToMigrationState and declare your state like:

     regs: Migratable<Mutex<MyDeviceRegisters>>

Migratable<> allows dereferencing to the underlying object with
no run-time cost.

Note that Migratable<> actually does not accept ToMigrationState,
only the similar ToMigrationStateShared trait that the user will mostly
not care about.  This is required by the fact that pre/post callbacks
take a &self, and ensures that the argument is a Mutex or BqlRefCell
(including an array or Arc<> thereof).
