rust: hrtimer: Add HrTimerCallbackContext and ::forward()

With Linux's hrtimer API, there's a number of methods that can only be
called in two situations:

* When we have exclusive access to the hrtimer and it is not currently
  active
* When we're within the context of an hrtimer callback context

This commit handles the second situation and implements hrtimer_forward()
support in the context of a timer callback. We do this by introducing a
HrTimerCallbackContext type which is provided to users during the
RawHrTimerCallback::run() callback, and then add a forward() function to
the type.
