rust: device: support dev_printk on all devices

Browse source

Currently, `dev_*` only works on the core `Device`, but not on any other
bus or class device objects. This causes a pattern of
`dev_info!(pdev.as_ref())` which is not ideal.

This adds support of using these devices directly with `dev_*` macros, by
adding `AsRef` call inside the macro. To make sure we can still use just
`kernel::device::Device`, as `AsRef` implementation is added for it; this
is typical for types that is designed to use with `AsRef` anyway, for
example, `str` implements `AsRef<str>` and `Path` implements `AsRef<Path>`.
