gpu: nova-core: gsp: cmdq: use consume_element to implement drain

This commit refactors CmdqInner::drain() to use consume_element() and
adds a log() helper method to GspParsedMessage.

[Severity: Medium]
Can removing the !self.gsp_mem.driver_read_area().0.is_empty() check
cause CmdqInner::drain() to sleep for 1 ms when the queue is empty?

Previously, CmdqInner::drain() only called wait_for_msg(Delta::ZERO)
after confirming a message was available in driver_read_area(). With the
new loop, consume_element(Delta::ZERO, ...) is called until the queue is
empty, which invokes wait_for_msg(Delta::ZERO):

drivers/gpu/nova-core/gsp/cmdq.rs:CmdqInner::wait_for_msg()
        let (slice_1, slice_2) = read_poll_timeout(
            || Ok(self.gsp_mem.driver_read_area()),
            |driver_area| !driver_area.0.is_empty(),
            Delta::from_millis(1),
            timeout,
        )

In rust/kernel/io/poll.rs:read_poll_timeout(), when the condition is
false, the timeout check uses a strict greater-than comparison:

        if start.elapsed() > timeout_delta {
            // Unlike the C version, we immediately return.
            // We have just called `op()` so we don't need to call it again.
            return Err(ETIMEDOUT);
        }

        if !sleep_delta.is_zero() {
            fsleep(sleep_delta);
        }

Because op() only reads two u32 indices from coherent memory in RAM, if
the monotonic clock has not advanced by at least 1 ns between
Instant::now() and start.elapsed() (for instance on architectures with
coarser timer resolution or under virtualization), start.elapsed() is
Delta::ZERO. Since Delta::ZERO > Delta::ZERO is false,
read_poll_timeout() falls through to fsleep(Delta::from_millis(1)) while
holding the Cmdq mutex (in paths like GspInterrupt::handle_threaded() ->
Cmdq::drain() and Gpu::new() -> Cmdq::drain()).

Would it make sense to keep the while
!self.gsp_mem.driver_read_area().0.is_empty() loop condition around
self.consume_element(Delta::ZERO, |message| message.log(self.dev))?
