rust: alloc: remove the `borrow` module (`ToOwned`, `Cow`)
The `Cow` type [1] requires that its generic parameter type implements
the `ToOwned` trait [2], which provides a method to create owned data
from borrowed data, usually by cloning.
However, it is infallible, and thus in most cases it is not useful for
the kernel. [3]
Therefore, introduce `cfg(no_borrow)` to remove the `borrow` module
(which contains `ToOwned` and `Cow`) from `alloc`.
