[PATCH 0/6] Replace `kernel::str::CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr` (cycle 1)

[Tamir Duberstein]

This series makes preparations for the replacement of our custom `CStr`
type with the analogous type available in `core`.

As this is a large migration that touches many subsystems, it will take
place in several cycles, each of which may see multiple series:
1. introduces facades in the kernel crate that downstream
   code can reference. [this series]
2. migrate downstream code to kernel crate facades. (N series, divided
   by subsystem).
3. replace kernel crate facades to allow `Display`ing foreign types
   (such as `core::ffi::CStr`). Replace `CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr`.
4. migrate uses of `c_str!` to C-String literals. Replace references to
   `kernel::str::CStr` with `kernel::ffi::CStr`. (N series, divided by
   subsystem).
5. rename `c_str!` to discourage use. Remove `CStr` reexport from
   `kernel/str.rs`.
