This patch series adds the serdev device bus rust abstraction into the
kernel.

This abstraction will be used by a driver,
which targets the MCU devices in Synology devices.

Kari Argillander also messaged me, stating that he wants to write a
watchdog driver with this abstraction (needing initial device data).

@Rob: Are you willing to maintain these rust abstractions yourself,
as you are the expert on this subsystem, otherwise I would take care of
it with a "SERIAL DEVICE BUS [RUST]" section in the MAINTAINERS file. In
the second case, I assume you are going to pick those patches as-is into
your tree, after they have been reviewed?

Changes in v2:
- fix documentation in `serdev::Driver::write` and
  `serdev::Driver::write_all`
- remove use of `dev_info` in probe from the sample
- remove `properties_parse` from the sample
- add optional `baudrate` property to the sample
- remove 1. patch
- remove `TryFrom<&device::Device<Ctx>> for &serdev::Device<Ctx>`
  implementation
- fix import style
- add patch to return reference in `devres::register` to fix safety
  issue
- add patch to add private data to serdev_device, to fix
  `Device.drvdata()` from failing
- simplify abstraction by removing ability to receive the initial
  transmission. It may be added later in a separate patch series if
  needed.
