rust: i2c: fix I2cAdapter refcounts double increment
When `I2cAdapter::get` executes, it first calls `bindings::i2c_get_adapter()` which increments the device and module reference counts. It then takes a reference to the raw pointer and converts it to an `ARef` via `.into()`. The implementation of `From<&T> for ARef<T>` where `T: AlwaysRefCounted` unconditionally calls `T::inc_ref()`. This leads to a second increment to the reference counts. Since the returned `ARef` will only release a single reference when dropped via `dec_ref()`, this leaks one device and module reference count on every call. This fix was suggested by sashiko.dev.
