rust: alloc: implement kernel Box

`Box` provides the simplest way to allocate memory for a generic type
with one of the kernel's allocators, e.g. `Kmalloc`, `Vmalloc` or
`KVmalloc`.

In contrast to Rust's `Box` type, the kernel `Box` type considers the
kernel's GFP flags for all appropriate functions, always reports
allocation failures through `Result<_, AllocError>` and remains
independent from unstable features.
