rust: enable clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks lint

Checking that we are not missing any `// SAFETY` comments in our `unsafe`
blocks is something we have wanted to do for a long time, as well as
cleaning up the remaining cases that were not documented [1].

Back when Rust for Linux started, this was something that could have
been done via a script, like Rust's `tidy`. Soon after, in Rust 1.58.0,
Clippy implemented the `undocumented_unsafe_blocks` lint [2].

Even though the lint has a few false positives, e.g. in some cases where
attributes appear between the comment and the `unsafe` block [3], there
are workarounds and the lint seems quite usable already.

Thus enable the lint now.

We still have a few cases to clean up, so just allow those for the moment
by writing a `TODO` comment -- some of those may be good candidates for
new contributors.
