impl<T> Format for {*const, *mut} T where T: Format + ?Sized

[Urhengulas]

• This behaves like std::fmt::Debug by printing the address as hexadecimal.
• The *self as *const () as usize is also used at rust/library/core/src/fmt/mod.rs#L2130.
• The as *const (), seems to be required cause else rustc complains with "casting *const T as usize is invalid, cast through a thin pointer first".

Fixes #442

Nice! Looks good to me. Could you also add a snapshot test for this? (you can create a raw pointer with 0xaabbccdd as *const u8). You can send this to bors afterwards.

Will do :) Do you know why the snapshot tests are failing btw?
