Subject[PATCH v1 27/28] rust: types: add `Either` type
Date
From: Wedson Almeida Filho <wedsonaf@gmail.com>

Introduce the new `types` module of the `kernel` crate with
`Either` as its first type.

`Either<L, R>` is a sum type that always holds either a value
of type `L` (`Left` variant) or `R` (`Right` variant).

For instance:

struct Executor {
queue: Either<BoxedQueue, &'static Queue>,
}
