[PATCH v2 0/3] rust: add `bitfield!` macro

[Alexandre Courbot]

This is the continuation of the `bitfield!` macro which started
alongside the `register!` one before being temporarily integrated into
it [1].

There were still ongoing discussions in [1], notably about improving the
ergonomics of setting bitfield values. This revision doesn't try to
address them yet (although the `with_const` setters partially solve the
issue); it just extracts the `bitfield!` macro and makes it available,
for the following reasons:

- To get the ball rolling again after several months of hiatus,
- Because it is already useful as-is, and ergonomics will be improved
  with macros built on top of the existing code,
- To allow dependencies over this series, notably the Nova MM series.

Thus, the discussions about ergonomics could take place as part of this
series, or as a follow-up - after all, bitfields are just registers
without I/O, so the present proposal does not introduce anything that is
not already in the kernel.
