[PATCH v3 0/5] 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].

Thanks for all the feedback on v2; I believe this version addresses all
of it, modulo Eliot's suggestion for more explicit range error messages.
Since this is not fundamentally broken, I'd like to address this in a
follow-up change to keep the series focused on the macro extraction from
`register!`.

This version is based on today's `rust-next`, which happens to be
`7.1-rc1`. If review proves satisfying, I see several possible merge
strategies, the one with the least friction being patches 1 and 2 are
merged into the rust tree this cycle, followed by patches 3-5 via the
I/O and DRM trees during the following cycle. This path would not
require any signed tag.

Changes in v3:
- Split patch 1 into the addition of the `bitfield!` macro and its use
  in the `io` module.
- Mention reserved field names in `bitfield!`'s doccomment.
- Properly order fields in the KUnit test.
- Add a Kconfig option for building the KUnit tests.
- Document behavior on non-covered bits.
- Document support for signed fields and storage types (TL;DR: not
  supported).
- Move `nova-core`'s `bitfield` module deletion into its own patch.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260409-bitfield-v2-0-23ac400071cb@xxxxxxxxxx
