rust: enable `raw_ref_op` feature

Since Rust 1.82.0 the `raw_ref_op` feature is stable [1].

By enabling this feature we can use `&raw const place` and
`&raw mut place` instead of using `addr_of!(place)` and
`addr_of_mut!(place)` macros.

Allowing us to reduce macro complexity, and improve consistency
with existing reference syntax as `&raw const`, `&raw mut` are
similar to `&`, `&mut` making it fit more naturally with other
existing code.
