[PATCH v2 12/13] rust: provide safe wrapper for MaybeUninit::zeroed()

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

MaybeUninit::zeroed() is handy, but it introduces unsafe (and has a
pretty heavy syntax in general).  Introduce a trait that provides the
same functionality while staying within safe Rust.

In addition, MaybeUninit::zeroed() is not available as a "const"
function until Rust 1.75.0, so this also prepares for having handwritten
implementations of the trait until we can assume that version.
