rust: replace `CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr`
`kernel::ffi::CStr` was introduced in commit d126d2380131 ("rust: str:
add `CStr` type") in November 2022 as an upstreaming of earlier work
that was done in May 2021[0]. That earlier work, having predated the
inclusion of `CStr` in `core`, largely duplicated the implementation of
`std::ffi::CStr`.
`std::ffi::CStr` was moved to `core::ffi::CStr` in Rust 1.64 in
September 2022. Hence replace `kernel::str::CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr`
to reduce our custom code footprint, and retain needed custom
functionality through an extension trait.
Add `CStr` to `ffi` and the kernel prelude.
