The `FwFunc` struct contains an function with a char pointer argument,
for which a `*const u8` pointer was used. This is not really the
"proper" type for this, so use a `*const kernel::ffi::c_char` pointer
instead.
This has no real functionality changes, since now `kernel::ffi::c_char`
(which bindgen uses for `char`) is now a type alias to `u8` anyways,
but before commit 1bae8729e50a ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char`
to `u8`") the concrete type of `kernel::ffi::c_char` depended on the
architecture (However all supported architectures at the time mapped to
`i8`).
This caused problems on the v6.13 tag when building for 32 bit arm (with
my patches), since back then `*const i8` was used in the function
argument and the function that bindgen generated used
`*const core::ffi::c_char` which Rust mapped to `*const u8` on 32 bit
arm. The stable v6.13.y branch does not have this issue since commit
1bae8729e50a ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char` to `u8`") was
backported.
This caused the following build error:

[ Add firmware prefix to commit subject. - Danilo ]

Analogous to the `module!` macro `module_firmware!` adds additional
firmware path strings to the .modinfo section.
In contrast to `module!`, where path strings need to be string literals,
path strings can be composed with the `firmware::ModInfoBuilder`.
Some drivers require a lot of firmware files (such as nova-core) and
hence benefit from more flexibility composing firmware path strings.

The `firmware` field of the `module!` only accepts literal strings,
which is due to the fact that it is implemented as a proc macro.
Some drivers require a lot of firmware files (such as nova-core) and
hence benefit from more flexibility composing firmware path strings.
The `firmware::ModInfoBuilder` is a helper component to flexibly compose
firmware path strings for the .modinfo section in const context.
It is meant to be used in combination with `kernel::module_firmware!`.

The following FFI types are replaced compared to `core::ffi`:
1. `char` type is now always mapped to `u8`, since kernel uses
`-funsigned-char` on the C code. `core::ffi` maps it to platform
default ABI, which can be either signed or unsigned.
2. `long` is now always mapped to `isize`. It's very common in the
kernel to use `long` to represent a pointer-sized integer, and in
fact `intptr_t` is a typedef of `long` in the kernel. Enforce this
mapping rather than mapping to `i32/i64` depending on platform can
save us a lot of unnecessary casts.

[ Moved `uaccess` changes from the next commit, since they were
irrefutable patterns that Rust >= 1.82.0 warns about. Reworded
slightly and reformatted a few documentation comments. Rebased on
top of `rust-next`. Added the removal of two casts to avoid Clippy
warnings. - Miguel ]

The function Device::from_raw() increments a refcount by a call to
bindings::get_device(ptr). This can be confused because usually
from_raw() functions don't increment a refcount.
Hence, rename Device::from_raw() to avoid confuion with other "from_raw"
semantics.
The new name of function should be "get_device" to be consistent with
the function get_device() already exist in .c files.
This function body also changed, because the `into()` will convert the
`&'a Device` into `ARef<Device>` and also call `inc_ref` from the
`AlwaysRefCounted` trait implemented for Device.

`request_internal` must be called with one of the following function
pointers: request_firmware(), firmware_request_nowarn(),
firmware_request_platform() or request_firmware_direct().
The previous `FwFunc` alias did not guarantee this, which is unsound.
In order to fix this up, implement `FwFunc` as new type with a
corresponding type invariant.

The doctests of `Firmware` are compile-time only tests, since they
require a proper `Device` and a valid path to a (firmware) blob in order
to do something sane on runtime - we can't satisfy both of those
requirements.
Hence, configure the example as `no_run`.
Unfortunately, the kernel's Rust build system can't consider the
`no_run` attribute yet. Hence, for the meantime, wrap the example code
into a new function and never actually call it.

Add an abstraction around the kernels firmware API to request firmware
images. The abstraction provides functions to access the firmware's size
and backing buffer.
The firmware is released once the abstraction instance is dropped.
