Define a separate trait for fields that also applies to classes that are
defined by C code. This makes it possible to add metadata to core classes,
which has multiple uses:
- it makes it possible to access the parent struct's TYPE_* for types
that are defined in Rust code, and to avoid repeating it in every subclass
- implementors of ObjectType will be allowed to implement the IsA<> trait and
therefore to perform typesafe casts from one class to another.
- in the future, an ObjectType could be created with Foo::new() in a type-safe
manner, without having to pass a TYPE_* constant.

The bindgen supports `static inline` function binding since v0.64.0 as
an experimental feature (`--wrap-static-fns`), and stabilizes it after
v0.70.0.
But the oldest version of bindgen supported by QEMU is v0.60.1, so
there's no way to generate the binding for deposit64() which is `static
inline` (in include/qemu/bitops.h).
Instead, implement it by hand in Rust and make it available for all
unsigned types through an IntegerExt trait. Since it only involves bit
operations, the Rust version of the code is almost identical to the
original C version, but it applies to more types than just u64.

Add a module that will contain frequently used traits and
occasionally structs. They can be included quickly with
"use qemu_api::prelude::*".
