[PATCH v4 4/5] rust: types: ForeignOwnable: Add type Target

[Danilo Krummrich]

ForeignOwnable::Target defines the payload data of a ForeignOwnable. For
Arc<T> for instance, ForeignOwnable::Target would just be T.

This is useful for cases where a trait bound is required on the target
type of the ForeignOwnable. For instance:

	fn example<P>(data: P)
	   where
	      P: ForeignOwnable,
	      P::Target: MyTrait,
	{}
