rust: uaccess: add UserSliceReader::read_slice_partial()
The existing read_slice() method is a wrapper around copy_from_user()
and expects the user buffer to be larger than the destination buffer.
However, userspace may split up writes in multiple partial operations
providing an offset into the destination buffer and a smaller user
buffer.
In order to support this common case, provide a helper for partial
reads.
