Unlike regular classes, interface vtables can only be obtained via
object_class_dynamic_cast. Provide a wrapper that allows accessing
the vtable and pass it to a ClassInitImpl implementation, for example
ClassInitImpl<ResettableClass>.

Add a Rust version of qdev_init_clock_in, which can be used in
instance_init. There are a couple differences with the C
version:
- in Rust the object keeps its own reference to the clock (in addition to
the one embedded in the NamedClockList), and the reference is dropped
automatically by instance_finalize(); this is encoded in the signature
of DeviceClassMethods::init_clock_in, which makes the lifetime of the
clock independent of that of the object it holds. This goes unnoticed
in the C version and is due to the existence of aliases.
- also, anything that happens during instance_init uses the pinned_init
framework to operate on a partially initialized object, and is done
through class methods (i.e. through DeviceClassMethods rather than
DeviceMethods) because the device does not exist yet. Therefore, Rust
code *must* create clocks from instance_init, which is stricter than C.

The existing translation of the C macros for vmstate does not make
any attempt to type-check vmstate declarations against the struct, so
introduce a new system that computes VMStateField based on the actual
struct declaration.
Macros do not have full access to the type system, therefore a full
implementation of this scheme requires a helper trait to analyze the
type and produce a VMStateField from it; a macro "vmstate_of!" accepts
arguments similar to "offset_of!" and tricks the compiler into looking
up the trait for the right type.
The patch introduces not just vmstate_of!, but also the slightly too
clever enabling macro call_func_with_field!. The particular trick used
here was proposed on the users.rust-lang.org forum, so I take no merit
and all the blame.
Introduce the trait and some functions to access it; the actual
implementation comes later.

The ObjectDeref trait now provides all the magic that is required to fake
inheritance. Replace the "impl SysBusDevice" block of qemu_api::sysbus
with a trait, so that sysbus_init_irq() can be invoked as "self.init_irq()"
without any intermediate upcast.

Add an example of implementing instance methods and converting the
result back to a Rust type. In this case the returned types are a
string (actually a Cow<str>; but that's transparent as long as it derefs
to &str) and a QOM class.

Add traits that let client cast typecast safely between object types.
In particular, an upcast is compile-time guaranteed to succeed, and a
YOLO C-style downcast must be marked as unsafe.
The traits are based on an IsA<> trait that declares what
is a subclass of what, which is an idea taken from glib-rs
(https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.IsA.html).
The four primitives are also taken from there
(https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.Cast.html). However,
the implementation of casting itself is a bit different and uses the
Deref trait.
This removes some pointer arithmetic from the pl011 device; it is also a
prerequisite for the definition of methods, so that they can be invoked
on all subclass structs. This will use the IsA<> trait to detect the
structs that support the methods.
glib also has a "monadic" casting trait which could be implemented on
Option (as in https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.CastNone.html)
and perhaps even Result. For now I'm leaving it out, as the patch is
already big enough and the benefit seems debatable.

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.
