rust: dma: introduce dma::CoherentBox for memory initialization

Currently, dma::Coherent cannot safely provide (mutable) access to its
underlying memory because the memory might be concurrently accessed by a
DMA device. This makes it difficult to safely initialize the memory
before handing it over to the hardware.

Introduce dma::CoherentBox, a type that encapsulates a dma::Coherent
before its DMA address is exposed to the device. dma::CoherentBox can
guarantee exclusive access to the inner dma::Coherent and implement
Deref and DerefMut.

Once the memory is properly initialized, dma::CoherentBox can be
converted into a regular dma::Coherent.
