rust: macros: add concat_idents! proc macro

This macro provides similar functionality to the unstable feature
`concat_idents` without having to rely on it.

For instance:

    let x_1 = 42;
    let x_2 = concat_idents!(x, _1);
    assert!(x_1 == x_2);

It has different behavior with respect to macro hygiene. Unlike
the unstable `concat_idents!` macro, it allows, for example,
referring to local variables by taking the span of the second
macro as span for the output identifier.
