rust: driver: introduce a DriverLayout trait

The DriverLayout trait describes the layout of a specific driver
structure, such as `struct pci_driver` or `struct platform_driver`.

In a first step, this replaces the associated type RegType of the
RegistrationOps with the DriverLayout::DriverType associated type.

[ Rename driver::Driver to driver::DriverLayout, as it represents the
