Benno Lossin 6d1c22d0ac rust: init: add write_[pin_]init functions
Sometimes it is necessary to split allocation and initialization into
two steps. One such situation is when reusing existing allocations
obtained via `Box::drop_contents`. See [1] for an example.

In order to support this use case add `write_[pin_]init` functions to the
pin-init API. These functions operate on already allocated smart
pointers that wrap `MaybeUninit<T>`.
