[POC 5/6] rust: sync: Introduce lock::Backend::Context

From: Boqun Feng

From: Lyude Paul <lyude@xxxxxxxxxx>

Now that we've introduced an `InterruptDisabled` token for marking
contexts in which IRQs are disabled, we can have a way to avoid
`SpinLockIrq` disabling interrupts if the interrupts have already been
disabled. Basically, a `SpinLockIrq` should work like a `SpinLock` if
interrupts are disabled. So a function:

(&'a SpinLockIrq, &'a InterruptDisabled) -> Guard<'a, .., SpinLockBackend>

makes senses. Note that due to `Guard` and `InterruptDisabled` has the
same lifetime, interrupts cannot be enabled whiel the Guard exists.

Add a `lock_with()` interface for `Lock`, and an associate type of
`Backend` to describe the context.

[Boqun: Change the interface a lot, now `SpinLockIrq` can use the
`lock()` function, but it always disable the interrupts, reuse the
`lock_with()` method to provide a way for locking if interrupts are
already disabled. `lock_with()` implementation will be added later.]
