[PATCH v3 2/2] rust: sync: add `Arc::into_unique_or_drop`

[Alice Ryhl]

Decrement the refcount of an `Arc`, but handle the case where it hits
zero by taking ownership of the now-unique `Arc`, instead of destroying
and deallocating it.

This is a dependency of the linked list that Rust Binder uses. The
linked list uses this method as part of its `ListArc` abstraction.
