rust: debugfs: Add support for scoped directories

Introduces the concept of a `ScopedDir`, which allows for the creation
of debugfs directories and files that are tied to the lifetime of a
particular data structure. This ensures that debugfs entries do not
outlive the data they refer to.

The new `Dir::scope` method creates a new directory that is owned by a
`Scope` handle. All files and subdirectories created within this scope
are automatically cleaned up when the `Scope` is dropped.
