Subject: [PATCH v4 09/14] rust: hrtimer: add `hrtimer::ScopedTimerPointer`

Add the trait `ScopedTimerPointer` to allow safe use of stack allocated
timers. Safety is achieved by pinning the stack in place while timers are
running.

Implement the trait for all types that implement `UnsafeTimerPointer`.
