Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Binary Large Objects for Rust DebugFS

This series adds support for exposing binary large objects via Rust debugfs.

The first two patches extend UserSliceReader and UserSliceWriter with partial
read/write helpers.

The series further introduces read_binary_file(), write_binary_file() and
read_write_binary_file() methods for the Dir and ScopedDir types.

It also introduces the BinaryWriter and BinaryReader traits, which are used to
read/write the implementing type's binary representation with the help of the
backing file operations from/to debugfs.

Additional to some more generic blanked implementations for the BinaryWriter and
BinaryReader traits it also provides implementations for common smart pointer
types.

Both samples (file-based and scoped) are updated with corresponding examples.

A branch containing the patches can be found in [1].
