Tamir Duberstein e9217e9776 rust: binder: enable clippy::as_underscore ...

In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]:

> The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that
> might go undetected due to the type being inferred.
>
> The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always
> specifying the type.

Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call
contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying
the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`.

Several inferred conversions from `binder_uintptr_t` to the driver's
internal `u64` node identifiers are identity conversions. Although the
UAPI header retains `BINDER_IPC_32BIT` for userspace building against
older kernels, commit 1190b4e38f ("ANDROID: binder: remove 32-bit
binder interface.") removed kernel support for selecting that protocol.
Rust Binder therefore uses the 64-bit Binder protocol on every supported
architecture.

While this does not eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint in the Binder Rust driver -- no functional
change intended.
