[RFC PATCH 15/19] rust: fs: add basic support for fs buffer heads

[Wedson Almeida Filho <wedsonaf@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Wedson Almeida Filho <walmeida@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Introduce the abstractions that will be used by modules to handle buffer
heads, which will be used to access cached blocks from block devices.

All dead-code annotations are removed in the next commit in the series.
