japaric's volatile-register, which is using japaric's vcell

It not possible to implement a VolatileCell in a sound way at the moment because the compiler might insert spurious reads. See japaric/vcell#10 and rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines#411 for details.

In this crate, we try to create a sound abstraction for volatile access, based on raw pointers.
