This series makes preparations for the replacement of our custom `CStr`
type with the analogous type available in `core`.
As this is a large migration that touches many subsystems, it will take
place in several cycles, each of which may see multiple series:
1. introduces facades in the kernel crate that downstream
code can reference. [this series]
2. migrate downstream code to kernel crate facades. (N series, divided
by subsystem).
3. replace kernel crate facades to allow `Display`ing foreign types
(such as `core::ffi::CStr`). Replace `CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr`.
4. migrate uses of `c_str!` to C-String literals. Replace references to
`kernel::str::CStr` with `kernel::ffi::CStr`. (N series, divided by
subsystem).
5. rename `c_str!` to discourage use. Remove `CStr` reexport from
`kernel/str.rs`.
