[PATCH 00/10] rust: io: make register bases typed and remove relative registers

Currently registers work for all untyped I/O regions, which is not ideal.
It allows registers defined for device A to work for another device B and
there is no safeguarding at all.

Change this by requiring a base type for registers. `register!` can still
define registers on untyped `Region`s, although users would need to do so
explicitly and supply a concrete type.

This change makes it possible to use projection for relative registers;
relative registers can be implemented by defining new types for the I/O
subregions and just define registers for these subregion types like normal
registers.

This actually results in more ergnomic code for users of relative registers
(currently only nova-core), because non-array registers can be written to
with

    subregion_proj(bar).read(REG)
    subregion_proj(bar).write_reg(reg)

instead of

    bar.read(REG::of::<Subregion>())
    bar.write(WithBase::of::<Subregion>(), reg)
