[PATCH v2] rust: Mark all from() for Error functions inline

[alistair23]

From: Alistair Francis <alistair.francis@xxxxxxx>

Mark all of the existing

impl From<...> for Error {
    fn from(err: ...) -> Self {
        ...
    }
}

functions as `#[inline]`

There was a recent request [1] to inline the simple from() Error
functions to avoid the function call overhead.

This patch inlines all of the functions (except for the pin-init) and
converts one existing `inline(always)` to `inline` to match the styles.
