rust: sync: atomic: Add generic atomics

To provide using LKMM atomics for Rust code, a generic `Atomic<T>` is
added, currently `T` needs to be Send + Copy because these are the
straightforward usages and all basic types support this.

Implement `AtomicType` for `i32` and `i64`, and so far only basic
operations load() and store() are introduced.

+/// A memory location which can be safely modified from multiple execution contexts.
+///
+/// This has the same size, alignment and bit validity as the underlying type `T`. And it disables
+/// niche optimization for the same reason as [`UnsafeCell`].
+///
+/// The atomic operations are implemented in a way that is fully compatible with the [Linux Kernel
+/// Memory (Consistency) Model][LKMM], hence they should be modeled as the corresponding
+/// [`LKMM`][LKMM] atomic primitives. With the help of [`Atomic::from_ptr()`] and
+/// [`Atomic::as_ptr()`], this provides a way to interact with [C-side atomic operations]
+/// (including those without the `atomic` prefix, e.g. `READ_ONCE()`, `WRITE_ONCE()`,
+/// `smp_load_acquire()` and `smp_store_release()`).
+///
+/// # Invariants
+///
+/// `self.0` is a valid `T`.

+/// # Round-trip transmutability
+///
+/// `T` is round-trip transmutable to `U` if and only if both of these properties hold:
+///
+/// - Any valid bit pattern for `T` is also a valid bit pattern for `U`.
+/// - Transmuting (e.g. using [`transmute()`]) a value of type `T` to `U` and then to `T` again
+///   yields a value that is in all aspects equivalent to the original value.
+///
+/// # Safety
+///
+/// - [`Self`] must have the same size and alignment as [`Self::Repr`].
+/// - [`Self`] must be [round-trip transmutable] to  [`Self::Repr`].
+///
+/// Note that this is more relaxed than requiring the bi-directional transmutability (i.e.
+/// [`transmute()`] is always sound between `U` and `T`) because of the support for atomic
+/// variables over unit-only enums, see [Examples].
+///
+/// # Limitations
+///
+/// Because C primitives are used to implement the atomic operations, and a C function requires a
+/// valid object of a type to operate on (i.e. no `MaybeUninit<_>`), hence at the Rust <-> C
+/// surface, only types with all the bits initialized can be passed. As a result, types like `(u8,
+/// u16)` (padding bytes are uninitialized) are currently not supported.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// A unit-only enum that implements [`AtomicType`]:
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::sync::atomic::{AtomicType, Atomic, Relaxed};

+/// #[derive(Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
+/// #[repr(i32)]
