[PATCH v1 2/2] rust: sync: implement `AsRef<T>` for `Arc<T>`

From: Alice Ryhl
Date: Wed May 17 2023 - 16:08:46 EST


This trait lets you use `Arc<T>` in code that is generic over smart
pointer types.

The `AsRef` trait should be implemented on all smart pointers. The
standard library also implements it on the ordinary `Arc`.
