It is slightly more convenient to operate on mut pointers, and this also
properly conveys the desired ownership semantics of the trait.

Replace `as` casts with `cast{,_mut}` calls which are a bit safer.
In one instance, remove an unnecessary `as` cast without replacement.

Ensure consistency between `Debug` and `Display` for `Box` by
updating `Debug` to match the new `Display` style.

Currently `impl Display` is missing for `Box<T, A>`, as a result,
things like using `Box<..>` directly as an operand in `pr_info!()`
are impossible, which is less ergonomic compared to `Box` in Rust
std.
Therefore add `impl Display` for `Box`.

Currently FFI integer types are defined in libcore. This commit creates
the `ffi` crate and asks bindgen to use that crate for FFI integer types
instead of `core::ffi`.
This commit is preparatory and no type changes are made in this commit
yet.

[ Added `rustdoc`, `rusttest` and KUnit tests support. Rebased on top of
`rust-next` (e.g. migrated more `core::ffi` cases). Reworded crate
docs slightly and formatted. - Miguel ]

`Box` provides the simplest way to allocate memory for a generic type
with one of the kernel's allocators, e.g. `Kmalloc`, `Vmalloc` or
`KVmalloc`.
In contrast to Rust's `Box` type, the kernel `Box` type considers the
kernel's GFP flags for all appropriate functions, always reports
allocation failures through `Result<_, AllocError>` and remains
independent from unstable features.
