rust: workqueue: add helper for defining work_struct fields
The main challenge with defining `work_struct` fields is making sure that the function pointer stored in the `work_struct` is appropriate for the work item type it is embedded in. It needs to know the offset of the `work_struct` field being used (even if there are several!) so that it can do a `container_of`, and it needs to know the type of the work item so that it can call into the right user-provided code. All of this needs to happen in a way that provides a safe API to the user, so that users of the workqueue cannot mix up the function pointers. There are three important pieces that are relevant when doing this: * The pointer type. * The work item struct. This is what the pointer points at. * The `work_struct` field. This is a field of the work item struct. This patch introduces a separate trait for each piece. The pointer type is given a `WorkItemPointer` trait, which pointer types need to implement to be usable with the workqueue. This trait will be implemented for `Arc` and `Box` in a later patch in this patchset. Implementing this trait is unsafe because this is where the `container_of` operation happens, but user-code will not need to implement it themselves. The work item struct should then implement the `WorkItem` trait. This trait is where user-code specifies what they want to happen when a work item is executed. It also specifies what the correct pointer type is. Finally, to make the work item struct know the offset of its `work_struct` field, we use a trait called `HasWork<T, ID>`. If a type implements this trait, then the type declares that, at the given offset, there is a field of type `Work<T, ID>`. The trait is marked unsafe because the OFFSET constant must be correct, but we provide an `impl_has_work!` macro that can safely implement `HasWork<T>` on a type. The macro expands to something that only compiles if the specified field really has the type `Work<T>`. It is used like this: ``` struct MyWorkItem { work_field: Work<MyWorkItem, 1>, } impl_has_work! { impl HasWork<MyWorkItem, 1> for MyWorkItem { self.work_field } } ``` Note that since the `Work` type is annotated with an id, you can have several `work_struct` fields by using a different id for each one.

//! Work queues.
//!
+//! This file has two components: The raw work item API, and the safe work item API.
+//!
+//! One pattern that is used in both APIs is the `ID` const generic, which exists to allow a single
+//! type to define multiple `work_struct` fields. This is done by choosing an id for each field,
+//! and using that id to specify which field you wish to use. (The actual value doesn't matter, as
+//! long as you use different values for different fields of the same struct.) Since these IDs are
+//! generic, they are used only at compile-time, so they shouldn't exist in the final binary.
+//!
+//! # The raw API
+//!
+//! The raw API consists of the `RawWorkItem` trait, where the work item needs to provide an
+//! arbitrary function that knows how to enqueue the work item. It should usually not be used
+//! directly, but if you want to, you can use it without using the pieces from the safe API.
+//!
+//! # The safe API
+//!
+//! The safe API is used via the `Work` struct and `WorkItem` traits. Furthermore, it also includes
+//! a trait called `WorkItemPointer`, which is usually not used directly by the user.
+//!
+//! * The `Work` struct is the Rust wrapper for the C `work_struct` type.
+//! * The `WorkItem` trait is implemented for structs that can be enqueued to a workqueue.
+//! * The `WorkItemPointer` trait is implemented for the pointer type that points at a something
+//! that implements `WorkItem`.
