[PATCH v4 3/7] rust: alloc: implement `Borrow` and `BorrowMut` for `KBox`

[Alexandre Courbot <acourbot@nvidia.com>]

Implement `Borrow<T>` and `BorrowMut<T>` for `KBox<T>`. This allows
`KBox<T>` to be used in generic APIs asking for types implementing those
traits. `T` and `&mut T` also implement those traits allowing users to
use either owned, borrowed and heap-owned values.
