rust: io: add copying methods

One feature that was lost from the old `dma_read!` and `dma_write!` when
moving to `io_read!` and `io_write!` was the ability to read/write a large
structs. However, the semantics was unclear to begin with, as there was no
guarantee about their atomicity even for structs that were small enough to
fit in u32. Re-introduce the capability in the form of copying methods.

    dma_read!(foo, bar) -> io_project!(foo, bar).copy_read()
    dma_write!(foo, bar, baz) -> io_project!(foo, bar).copy_write(baz)

Model these semantics after memcpy so user has clear expectation of lack of
atomicity. As an additional benefit of this change, this now works for MMIO
as well by mapping them to `memcpy_{from,to}io`.

For slices which is DST so the `copy_read` and `copy_write` API above can't
work, add `copy_from_slice` and `copy_to_slice` to copy from/to normal
memory.
