Sometimes it is necessary to split allocation and initialization into two steps. One such situation is when reusing existing allocations obtained via `Box::drop_contents`. See [1] for an example. In order to support this use case add `write_[pin_]init` functions to the pin-init API. These functions operate on already allocated smart pointers that wrap `MaybeUninit<T>`.
