Subject: [PATCH v3 8/9] rust: file: add `DeferredFdCloser`

To close an fd from kernel space, we could call `ksys_close`. However,
if we do this to an fd that is held using `fdget`, then we may trigger a
use-after-free. Introduce a helper that can be used to close an fd even
if the fd is currently held with `fdget`. This is done by grabbing an
extra refcount to the file and dropping it in a task work once we return
to userspace.

This is necessary for Rust Binder because otherwise the user might try
to have Binder close its fd for /dev/binder, which would cause problems
as this happens inside an ioctl on /dev/binder, and ioctls hold the fd
using `fdget`.

Additional motivation can be found in commit 80cd795630d6 ("binder: fix
use-after-free due to ksys_close() during fdget()") and in the comments
on `binder_do_fd_close`.

If there is some way to detect whether an fd is currently held with
`fdget`, then this could be optimized to skip the allocation and task
work when this is not the case. Another possible optimization would be
to combine several fds into a single task work, since this is used with
fd arrays that might hold several fds.

That said, it might not be necessary to optimize it, because Rust Binder
has two ways to send fds: BINDER_TYPE_FD and BINDER_TYPE_FDA. With
BINDER_TYPE_FD, it is userspace's responsibility to close the fd, so
this mechanism is used only by BINDER_TYPE_FDA, but fd arrays are used
rarely these days.
