Subject: [PATCH v2] rust: transmute: Add implementation for FromBytes trait
Add implementation and documentation for FromBytes trait.
Add new feature block in order to allow using ToBytes
and bound to from_bytes_mut function. I'm adding this feature
because is possible create a value with disallowed bit pattern
and as_byte_mut could create such value by mutating the array and
acessing the original value. So adding ToBytes this can be avoided.

changes in v2:
- Rollback the implementation for the macro in the repository and add implementation of functions in trait
