[PATCH] rust: enable arbitrary_self_types and remove `Receiver`

[Gary Guo]

The `arbitrary_self_types` RFC [1] is accepted and the feature is being
worked on [2]. As part of the RFC, a new `Receiver` trait is to be added,
and it will be automatically implemented for all types that have `Deref`
implementation. This is different from the existing `Receiver` trait
that we use, which is a custom implementation that opts-in a type into
being used as receiver.

To prepare us for the change, remove the `Receiver` implementation and
the associated feature. To still allow `Arc` and others to be used as
method receivers, turn on `arbitrary_self_types` feature instead.
