drivers; add a Rust abstraction for DRM GEM.
This includes the BaseObject trait, which contains operations shared by
all GEM object classes.

[ Rework of GEM object abstractions
* switch to the Opaque<T> type
* fix (mutable) references to struct drm_gem_object (which in this
context is UB)
* drop all custom reference types in favor of AlwaysRefCounted
* bunch of minor changes and simplifications (e.g. IntoGEMObject
trait)
* write and fix safety and invariant comments
* remove necessity for and convert 'as' casts
