rust: implement ForeignOwnable for Pin<Box<T>>
We already implement ForeignOwnable for Box<T>, but it may be useful to store pinned data in a ForeignOwnable container. This patch makes that possible. This will be used together with upcoming miscdev abstractions, which Binder will use when binderfs is disabled.
