[PATCH 3/5] rust: clean Rust 1.88.0's `unnecessary_transmutes` lint

[Miguel Ojeda]

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1][2], `rustc` may
introduce a new lint that catches unnecessary transmutes, e.g.:

     error: unnecessary transmute
         --> rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs:23242:18
          |
    23242 |         unsafe { ::core::mem::transmute(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8) }
          |                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: replace this with: `(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8 == 1)`
          |
          = note: `-D unnecessary-transmutes` implied by `-D warnings`
          = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(unnecessary_transmutes)]`

There are a lot of them (at least 300), but luckily they are all in
`bindgen`-generated code.

Thus clean all up by allowing it there.

Since unknown lints trigger a lint itself in older compilers, do it
conditionally so that we can keep the `unknown_lints` lint enabled.
