Igor Korotin de7cd3e4d6 rust: use absolute paths in macros referencing core and kernel
Macros and auto-generated code should use absolute paths, `::core::...`
and `::kernel::...`, for core and kernel references.

This prevents issues where user-defined modules named `core` or `kernel`
could be picked up instead of the `core` or `kernel` crates.

Thus clean some references up.
