rust: list: add warning to List::remove docs about mem::take

The previous patches in this series illustrate why the List::remove
method is really dangerous. I think the real takeaway here is to replace
the linked lists with a different data structure without this unsafe
footgun, but for now we fix the bugs and add a warning to the docs.
