rust: add `Ownable` trait and `Owned` type

Add a new trait `Ownable` and type `Owned` for types that specify their
own way of performing allocation and destruction. This is useful for
types from the C side.

Implement `ForeignOwnable` for `Owned`.

Convert `Page` to be `Ownable` and add a `from_raw` method.

Add the trait `OwnableRefCounted` that allows conversion between
`ARef` and `Owned`. This is analogous to conversion between `Arc` and
`UniqueArc`.

Patches 1-5 implement `Ownable` and applies it to `Page`. These patches
can be merged on their own.

Patches 6-9 add `Ownable` -> `ARef` interop and can be merged later if
consensus on their shape cannot be reached.

Changes in v17:
- Rebase on v7.1-rc2.
- Reorder patches so that `Ownable` can merge without `OwnableRefCounted` (Alice).
- Add `#[inline]` directives to short functions added by the series (Gary).
- Link to v16: https://msgid.link/20260224-unique-ref-v16-0-c21afcb118d3...

Changes in v16:
- Simplify pointer to reference cast in `Page::from_raw`.
- Use `NonNull<Page>` rather than `Owned<Page>` for `BorrowedPage` internals.
- Use "convertible to reference" wording when converting pointers to references.
- Fix formatting for `Page::from_raw` docs.
- Leave imports alone when adding safety comment to aref example.
- Use `KBox::into_nonnull` for examples.
- Add patch for `KBox::into_nonnull`.
- Change invariants and safety comments of `Ownable` and make the trait safe.
- Make `Ownable::release` take a mutable reference.
- Fix error handling in example for `Ownable`
- Link to v15: https://msgid.link/20260220-unique-ref-v15-0-893ed86b06cc...

Changes in v15:
- Update series with original SoB's.
- Rename `AlwaysRefCounted` in `kernel::usb`.
- Rename `Owned::get_pin_mut` to `Owned::as_pin_mut`.
- Link to v14: https://msgid.link/20260204-unique-ref-v14-0-17cb29ebacbb...

Changes in v14:
- Rebase on v6.19-rc7.
- Rewrite cover letter.
- Update documentation and safety comments based on v13 feedback.
- Update commit messages.
- Reorder implementation blocks in owned.rs.
- Update example in owned.rs to use try operator rather than `expect`.
- Reformat use statements.
- Add patch: rust: page: convert to `Ownable`.
- Add patch: rust: implement `ForeignOwnable` for `Owned`.
- Add patch: rust: page: add `from_raw()`.
- Link to v13: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251117-unique-ref-v13-0-b5b24...

Changes in v13:
- Rebase onto v6.18-rc1 (Andreas's work).
- Documentation and style fixes contributed by Andreas
- Link to v12: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251001-unique-ref-v12-0-fa5c3...

Changes in v12:
-
- Rebase onto v6.17-rc1 (Andreas's work).
- moved kernel/types/ownable.rs to kernel/owned.rs
- Drop OwnableMut, make DerefMut depend on Unpin instead. I understood
  ML discussion as that being okay, but probably needs further scrunity.
- Lots of more documentation changes suggested by reviewers.
- Usage example for Ownable/Owned.
- Link to v11: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250618-unique-ref-v11-0-49ead...

Changes in v11:
- Rework of documentation. I tried to honor all requests for changes "in
  spirit" plus some clearifications and corrections of my own.
- Dropping `SimpleOwnedRefCounted` by request from Alice, as it creates a
  potentially problematic blanket implementation (which a derive macro that
  could be created later would not have).
- Dropping Miguel's "kbuild: provide `RUSTC_HAS_DO_NOT_RECOMMEND` symbol"
  patch, as it is not needed anymore after dropping `SimpleOwnedRefCounted`.
  (I can add it again, if it is considered useful anyway).
- Link to v10: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250502-unique-ref-v10-0-25de6...

Changes in v10:
- Moved kernel/ownable.rs to kernel/types/ownable.rs
- Fixes in documentation / comments as suggested by Andreas Hindborg
- Added Reviewed-by comment for Andreas Hindborg
- Fix rustfmt of pid_namespace.rs
- Link to v9: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250325-unique-ref-v9-0-e91618...

Changes in v9:
- Rebase onto v6.14-rc7
- Move Ownable/OwnedRefCounted/Ownable, etc., into separate module
- Documentation fixes to Ownable/OwnableMut/OwnableRefCounted
- Add missing SAFETY documentation to ARef example
- Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250313-unique-ref-v8-0-3082ff...

Changes in v8:
- Fix Co-developed-by and Suggested-by tags as suggested by Miguel and Boqun
- Some small documentation fixes in Owned/Ownable patch
- removing redundant trait constraint on DerefMut for Owned as suggested by Boqun Feng
- make SimpleOwnedRefCounted no longer implement RefCounted as suggested by Boqun Feng
- documentation for RefCounted as suggested by Boqun Feng
- Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250310-unique-ref-v7-0-4caddb...

Changes in v7:
- Squash patch to make Owned::from_raw/into_raw public into parent
- Added Signed-off-by to other people's commits
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250310-unique-ref-v6-0-1ff535...

Changes in v6:
- Changed comments/formatting as suggested by Miguel Ojeda
- Included and used new config flag RUSTC_HAS_DO_NOT_RECOMMEND,
  thus no changes to types.rs will be needed when the attribute
  becomes available.
- Fixed commit message for Owned patch.
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250307-unique-ref-v5-0-bffeb6...

Changes in v5:
- Rebase the whole thing on top of the Ownable/Owned traits by Asahi Lina.
- Rename AlwaysRefCounted to RefCounted and make AlwaysRefCounted a
  marker trait instead to allow to obtain an ARef<T> from an &T,
  which (as Alice pointed out) is unsound when combined with UniqueRef/Owned.
- Change the Trait design and naming to implement this feature,
  UniqueRef/UniqueRefCounted is dropped in favor of Ownable/Owned and
  OwnableRefCounted is used to provide the functions to convert
  between Owned and ARef.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250305-unique-ref-v4-1-a8fdef...

Changes in v4:
- Just a minor change in naming by request from Andreas Hindborg,
  try_shared_to_unique() -> try_from_shared(),
  unique_to_shared() -> into_shared(),
  which is more in line with standard Rust naming conventions.
