Subject: [PATCH 12/13] rust: support the new `-Zub-checks` flag

Rust 1.79.0 has introduced a new codegen flag, `-Zub-checks` [1], to
allow to independently configure (from `-Cdebug-assertions`) whether the
extra runtime checks for UB are emitted, in a similar fashion to
`-Coverflow-checks`.

This allows to configure the kernel with only the UB checks enabled,
but not the `debug_assert!`s; or vice versa, e.g. [2].

It also showcases how `RUSTC_VERSION` and the Kbuild macros, introduced
in the previous commit, can be used.
