rust: add `macros` crate
This crate contains all the procedural macros ("proc macros")
shared by all the kernel.
Procedural macros allow to create syntax extensions. They run at
compile-time and can consume as well as produce Rust syntax.
For instance, the `module!` macro that is used by Rust modules
is implemented here. It allows to easily declare the equivalent
information to the `MODULE_*` macros in C modules, e.g.:
module! {
type: RustMinimal,
name: b"rust_minimal",
author: b"Rust for Linux Contributors",
description: b"Rust minimal sample",
license: b"GPL",
}
