[PATCH v4 0/7] rust: add `bitfield!` macro

[Alexandre Courbot <acourbot@nvidia.com>]

This is the continuation of the `bitfield!` macro which started
alongside the `register!` one before being temporarily integrated into
it [1].

Thanks for all the feedback on v2; I believe this version addresses all
of it, modulo Eliot's suggestion for more explicit range error messages.
Since this is not fundamentally broken, I'd like to address this in a
follow-up change to keep the series focused on the macro extraction from
`register!`.

This version is based on `rust-next`, with [2] applied. If review proves
satisfying, the merge path with the least friction seems to be patches
1-3 into the rust tree this cycle, followed by patch 4 through the I/O
tree, and patches 5-6 via the DRM tree during the next cycle. Patch 7
can be merged after [2].

A tree with this branch and its dependencies is available at [3].

Changes in v4:
- Inline private bitfield accessor methods.
- Fully qualify types in `bitfield!` macro.
- Rename `RUST_KERNEL_BITFIELD_KUNIT_TEST` to `RUST_BITFIELD_KUNIT_TEST`.
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260501-bitfield-v3-0-aa1076c3337d@nvidia.com

Changes in v3:
- Split patch 1 into the addition of the `bitfield!` macro and its use
  in the `io` module.
- Mention reserved field names in `bitfield!`'s doccomment.
- Properly order fields in the KUnit test.
- Add a Kconfig option for building the KUnit tests.
- Document behavior on non-covered bits.
- Document support for signed fields and storage types (TL;DR: not
  supported).
- Move `nova-core`'s `bitfield` module deletion into its own patch.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260409-bitfield-v2-0-23ac400071cb@nvidia.com
