[PATCH v7 4/6] rust: str: implement `strip_prefix` for `BStr`

STALE584d REVIEWED: 16 (16M)

2 review trailers (2 from subsystem maintainers).

Implement `strip_prefix` for `BStr` by deferring to `slice::strip_prefix`
on the underlying `&[u8]`.

It is also possible to get this method by implementing
`core::slice::SlicePattern` for `BStr`. `SlicePattern` is unstable, so this
seems more reasonable.
