	Since `const_refs_to_static` has been stable as of the MSRV bump, a `ThisModule` pointer can now be used in const contexts. Add a `THIS_MODULE` const to the `ModuleMetadata` trait so that modules can provide their `ThisModule` pointer in const contexts such as static `file_operations`. Add a `this_module()` helper to retrieve the `THIS_MODULE` pointer of a given module type, and update `__init` to use it instead of the `THIS_MODULE` static generated by the `module!` macro. The `static THIS_MODULE` generated by the `module!` macro is retained for backwards compatibility with existing users and removed in a later patch once all references have been migrated.

2026-08-12	rust: module: move module types into `module.rs`	Alvin Sun
	Move `Module`, `InPlaceModule`, `ModuleMetadata` and `ThisModule` from `lib.rs` into a new `rust/kernel/module.rs`. Re-export them from `lib.rs` to avoid tree-wide changes. Switch six bus driver registrations from `module.0` to the public `ThisModule::as_ptr()` accessor, since the field is no longer visible outside the new `module` submodule. No functional change.
