[RFC PATCH 7/9] rust: qemu_api: add vmstate_struct and vmstate_cell

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

These are not type safe, but they're the best that can be done without
const_refs_static.

+// FIXME: including the `vmsd` field in a `const` is not possible without
+// the const_refs_static feature (stabilized in Rust 1.83.0).  Without it,
+// it is not possible to use VMS_STRUCT in a transparent manner using
+// `vmstate_of!`.  While VMSTATE_CLOCK can at least try to be type-safe,
+// VMSTATE_STRUCT includes $type only for documentation purposes; it
+// is checked against $field_name and $struct_name, but not against $vmsd
+// which is what really would matter.
