rust: workqueue: add low-level workqueue bindings
Define basic low-level bindings to a kernel workqueue. The API defined here can only be used unsafely. Later commits will provide safe wrappers.

+/// of the same struct. (Fields of different structs need not use different ids.)

+/// Note that the id is used only to select the right method to call during compilation. It wont be
+/// part of the final executable.
