[PATCH v1 23/28] rust: std_vendor: add `dbg!` macro based on `std`'s one

From: Niklas Mohrin <dev@niklasmohrin.de>

The Rust standard library has a really handy macro, `dbg!` [1,2].
It prints the source location (filename and line) along with the raw
source code that is invoked with and the `Debug` representation
of the given expression, e.g.:

let a = 2;
let b = dbg!(a * 2) + 1;
// ^-- prints: [src/main.rs:2] a * 2 = 4
assert_eq!(b, 5);

Port the macro over to the `kernel` crate, using `pr_info!`
instead of `eprintln!`, inside a new module called `std_vendor`.

Since the source code for the macro is taken from the standard
library source (with only minor adjustments), the new file is
licensed under `Apache 2.0 OR MIT`, just like the original [3,4].

+
+/// [`std::dbg`], but using [`pr_info`] instead of [`eprintln`].
+///
+/// Prints and returns the value of a given expression for quick and dirty
+/// debugging.
+///
+/// An example:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// let a = 2;
+/// # #[allow(clippy::dbg_macro)]
+/// let b = dbg!(a * 2) + 1;
+/// // ^-- prints: [src/main.rs:2] a * 2 = 4
+/// assert_eq!(b, 5);
+/// ```
+///
+/// The macro works by using the `Debug` implementation of the type of
+/// the given expression to print the value with [`printk`] along with the
+/// source location of the macro invocation as well as the source code
+/// of the expression.
+///
+/// Invoking the macro on an expression moves and takes ownership of it
+/// before returning the evaluated expression unchanged. If the type
+/// of the expression does not implement `Copy` and you don't want
+/// to give up ownership, you can instead borrow with `dbg!(&expr)`
+/// for some expression `expr`.
+///
+/// The `dbg!` macro works exactly the same in release builds.
+/// This is useful when debugging issues that only occur in release
+/// builds or when debugging in release mode is significantly faster.
+///
+/// Note that the macro is intended as a debugging tool and therefore you
+/// should avoid having uses of it in version control for long periods
+/// (other than in tests and similar).
+///
+/// # Stability
+///
+/// The exact output printed by this macro should not be relied upon
+/// and is subject to future changes.
+///
+/// # Further examples
+///
+/// With a method call:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # #[allow(clippy::dbg_macro)]
+/// fn foo(n: usize) {
+/// if dbg!(n.checked_sub(4)).is_some() {
+/// // ...
+/// }
+/// }
+///
+/// foo(3)
+/// ```
+///
+/// This prints to the kernel log:
+///
+/// ```text,ignore
+/// [src/main.rs:4] n.checked_sub(4) = None
+/// ```
+///
+/// Naive factorial implementation:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # #[allow(clippy::dbg_macro)]
+/// # {
+/// fn factorial(n: u32) -> u32 {
+/// if dbg!(n <= 1) {
+/// dbg!(1)
+/// } else {
+/// dbg!(n * factorial(n - 1))
+/// }
+/// }
+///
+/// dbg!(factorial(4));
+/// # }
+/// ```
+///
+/// This prints to the kernel log:
+///
+/// ```text,ignore
+/// [src/main.rs:3] n <= 1 = false
+/// [src/main.rs:3] n <= 1 = false
+/// [src/main.rs:3] n <= 1 = false
+/// [src/main.rs:3] n <= 1 = true
+/// [src/main.rs:4] 1 = 1
+/// [src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 2
+/// [src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 6
+/// [src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 24
+/// [src/main.rs:11] factorial(4) = 24
+/// ```
+///
+/// The `dbg!(..)` macro moves the input:
+///
+/// ```ignore
+/// /// A wrapper around `usize` which importantly is not Copyable.
+/// #[derive(Debug)]
+/// struct NoCopy(usize);
+///
+/// let a = NoCopy(42);
+/// let _ = dbg!(a); // <-- `a` is moved here.
+/// let _ = dbg!(a); // <-- `a` is moved again; error!
+/// ```
+///
+/// You can also use `dbg!()` without a value to just print the
+/// file and line whenever it's reached.
+///
+/// Finally, if you want to `dbg!(..)` multiple values, it will treat them as
+/// a tuple (and return it, too):
+///
+/// ```
+/// # #[allow(clippy::dbg_macro)]
+/// assert_eq!(dbg!(1usize, 2u32), (1, 2));
+/// ```
+///
+/// However, a single argument with a trailing comma will still not be treated
+/// as a tuple, following the convention of ignoring trailing commas in macro
+/// invocations. You can use a 1-tuple directly if you need one:
+///
+/// ```
+/// # #[allow(clippy::dbg_macro)]
+/// # {
+/// assert_eq!(1, dbg!(1u32,)); // trailing comma ignored
+/// assert_eq!((1,), dbg!((1u32,))); // 1-tuple
+/// # }
+/// ```
+///
