[PATCH] drm/panic: clean new `clippy::needless_range_loop` lint for Rust 1.100.0

[Miguel Ojeda]

Starting with Rust 1.100.0 (expected 2026-11-12), Clippy warns:

    warning: the loop variable `i` is only used to index `self.decimals`
       --> drivers/gpu/drm/drm_panic_qr.rs:410:18
        |
    410 |         for i in 0..len {
        |                  ^^^^^^
        |
    note: for this index operation
       --> drivers/gpu/drm/drm_panic_qr.rs:411:13
        |
    411 |             self.decimals[i] = (chunk % 10) as u8;
        |             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/main/index.html#needless_range_loop
        = note: `-W clippy::needless-range-loop` implied by `-W clippy::all`
        = help: to override `-W clippy::all` add `#[allow(clippy::needless_range_loop)]`
    help: consider using an iterator
        |
    410 -         for i in 0..len {
    410 +         for <item> in self.decimals.iter_mut().take(len) {
        |

The lint did not trigger here before because it could not handle arrays
behind a field access such as `self.decimals` -- Clippy was improved to
catch those cases [1][2].

Thus clean the warning by iterating over a slice rather than using
`take()` so that an out-of-range `len` still triggers the same bounds
check as the indexed loop.

One may want to keep the loop in a shape similar to e.g. the one above,
though.
