rust: lock: Add a Pin<&mut T> accessor

In order for callers to be able to access the inner T safely if T:
!Unpin, there needs to be a way to get a Pin<&mut T>. Add this accessor
and a corresponding example to tell users how it works.

This requires the pin projection functionality [1] for better ergonomic.

[boqun: Apply Daniel's fix to the code example, add the reference to pin
projection patch and remove out-of-date part in the commit log]
