Since commit b20fbbc08a ("rust: check type of `$ptr` in
`container_of!`") we have enforced that the field pointer passed to
container_of! must match the declared field. This caused mismatches when
using a pointer to bindings::x for fields of type Opaque<bindings::x>.
This situation encourages the user to simply pass field.cast() to the
container_of! macro, but this is not great because you might
accidentally pass a *mut bindings::y when the field type is
Opaque<bindings::x>, which would be wrong.
To help catch this kind of mistake, add a new Opaque::cast_from that
wraps a raw pointer in Opaque without changing the inner type. Also
update the docs to reflect this as well as some existing users.
