From: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net>

In order to easily use `IntoBytes`, add it to the prelude.

This adds both the trait (`zerocopy::IntoBytes`) as well as the derive
macro (`zerocopy_derive::IntoBytes`).

This is wanted because I want to convert the upcoming I/O projection series
to use `zerocopy` traits rather than keep using transmute module.

It is most helpful for derives in doc tests; I do not want to explicitly use
`#[derive(zerocopy_derive::IntoBytes)]` in the doc tests.
