Onur Özkan 2ad6c5cdc8 rust: rbtree: reduce unsafe blocks on pointer derefs
Refactors parts of the get() and find_best_match()
traversal logic to minimize the scope of unsafe blocks
and avoid duplicating same safety comments.

One of the removed comments was also misleading:

    // SAFETY: `node` is a non-null node...
    Ordering::Equal => return Some(unsafe { &(*this).value }),

as `node` should have been `this`.

No functional changes intended; this is purely a safety
improvement that reduces the amount of unsafe blocks
while keeping all invariants intact.

[ Alice writes:

    "One consequence of creating a &_ to the bindings::rb_node struct means
    that we assert immutability for the entire struct and not just the
    rb_left/rb_right fields, but I have verified that this is ok."
