Alvin Sun 54f846db7b rust: module: add THIS_MODULE const to ModuleMetadata trait
Since `const_refs_to_static` has been stable as of the MSRV bump, a
`ThisModule` pointer can now be used in const contexts.

Add a `THIS_MODULE` const to the `ModuleMetadata` trait so that modules
can provide their `ThisModule` pointer in const contexts such as static
`file_operations`.

Add a `this_module()` helper to retrieve the `THIS_MODULE` pointer of a
given module type, and update `__init` to use it instead of the
`THIS_MODULE` static generated by the `module!` macro.

The `static THIS_MODULE` generated by the `module!` macro is retained
for backwards compatibility with existing users and removed in a later
patch once all references have been migrated.

Alvin Sun 0752a2e96e rust: module: move module types into module.rs
Move `Module`, `InPlaceModule`, `ModuleMetadata` and `ThisModule` from
`lib.rs` into a new `rust/kernel/module.rs`. Re-export them from `lib.rs`
to avoid tree-wide changes.

Switch six bus driver registrations from `module.0` to the public
`ThisModule::as_ptr()` accessor, since the field is no longer visible
outside the new `module` submodule.

No functional change.
