Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: add Benno Lossin as Rust reviewer

Benno has been involved with the Rust for Linux project for
the better part of a year now. He has been working on solving
the safe pinned initialization problem [1], which resulted in
the pin-init API patch series [2] that allows to reduce the
need for `unsafe` code in the kernel. He is also working on
the field projection RFC for Rust [3] to bring pin-init as
a language feature.

His expertise with the language will be very useful to have
around in the future if Rust grows within the kernel, thus
add him to the `RUST` entry as reviewer.

Applied to `rust-next`.
