rust: retain pointer mut-ness in container_of!

Browse source 
Avoid casting the input pointer to `*const _`, allowing the output
pointer to be `*mut` if the input is `*mut`. This allows a number of
`*const` to `*mut` conversions to be removed at the cost of slightly
worse ergonomics when the macro is used with a reference rather than a
pointer; the only example of this was in the macro's own doctest.
