rust: module: add type `LocalModule`
The `LocalModule` type is the type of the module created by `module!`, `module_pci_driver!`, `module_platform_driver!`, etc. Since the exact type of the module is sometimes generated on the fly by the listed macros, provide an alias. This is first used by the `module_firmware!` macro.
