rust: fs: add registration/unregistration of file systems

Allow basic registration and unregistration of Rust file system types.
Unregistration happens automatically when a registration variable is
dropped (e.g., when it goes out of scope).

File systems registered this way are visible in `/proc/filesystems` but
cannot be mounted yet because `init_fs_context` fails.
