rust: types: add Either type

Introduce the new `types` module of the `kernel` crate with
`Either` as its first type.

`Either<L, R>` is a sum type that always holds either a value
of type `L` (`Left` variant) or `R` (`Right` variant).

For instance:

    struct Executor {
        queue: Either<BoxedQueue, &'static Queue>,
    }
