rust: device: change the from_raw() function

The function Device::from_raw() increments a refcount by a call to
bindings::get_device(ptr). This can be confused because usually
from_raw() functions don't increment a refcount.
Hence, rename Device::from_raw() to avoid confuion with other "from_raw"
semantics.

The new name of function should be "get_device" to be consistent with
the function get_device() already exist in .c files.

This function body also changed, because the `into()` will convert the
`&'a Device` into `ARef<Device>` and also call `inc_ref` from the
`AlwaysRefCounted` trait implemented for Device.
