Subject: [PATCH v5 03/10] rust: list: add tracking for ListArc

Add the ability to track whether a ListArc exists for a given value,
allowing for the creation of ListArcs without going through UniqueArc.

The `impl_list_arc_safe!` macro is extended with a `tracked_by` strategy
that defers the tracking of ListArcs to a field of the struct.
Additionally, the AtomicListArcTracker type is introduced, which can
track whether a ListArc exists using an atomic. By deferring the
tracking to a field of type AtomicListArcTracker, structs gain the
ability to create ListArcs without going through a UniqueArc.

Rust Binder uses this for some objects where we want to be able to
insert them into a linked list at any time. Using the
AtomicListArcTracker, we are able to check whether an item is already in
the list, and if not, we can create a `ListArc` and push it.

The macro has the ability to defer the tracking of ListArcs to a field,
using whatever strategy that field has. Since we don't add any
strategies other than AtomicListArcTracker, another similar option would
be to hard-code that the field should be an AtomicListArcTracker.
However, Rust Binder has a case where the AtomicListArcTracker is not
stored directly in the struct, but in a sub-struct. Furthermore, the
outer struct is generic:

struct Wrapper<T: ?Sized> {
    links: ListLinks,
    inner: T,
}

Here, the Wrapper struct implements ListArcSafe with `tracked_by inner`,
and then the various types used with `inner` also uses the macro to
implement ListArcSafe. Some of them use the untracked strategy, and some
of them use tracked_by with an AtomicListArcTracker. This way, Wrapper
just inherits whichever choice `inner` has made.
