rust: alloc: add Vec::retain

This adds a common Vec method called `retain` that removes all elements
that don't match a certain condition. Rust Binder uses it to find all
processes that match a given pid.

The stdlib retain method takes &T rather than &mut T and has a separate
retain_mut for the &mut T case. However, this is considered an API
mistake that can't be fixed now due to backwards compatibility. There's
no reason for us to repeat that mistake.
