rust: pin-init: remove kernel-crate dependency

In order to make pin-init a standalone crate, remove dependencies on
kernel-specific code such as `ScopeGuard` and `KBox`.

`ScopeGuard` is only used in the `[pin_]init_array_from_fn` functions
and can easily be replaced by a primitive construct.

`KBox` is only used for type variance of unsized types and can also
easily be replaced.
