Subject: [PATCH 1/3] rust: alloc: clarify what is the upstream version

It may be unclear for readers which upstream Rust version these files
are based on. They may be unaware that they are intended to match the
minimum (and only, so far) supported version of Rust in the kernel.

Thus clarify it.

 methods). Eventually, changes should make it into upstream so that,
 at some point, this fork can be dropped from the kernel tree.
