rust: device: change the from_raw() function
The function Device::from_raw() increments a refcount by a call to bindings::get_device(ptr). This can be confused because usually from_raw() functions don't increment a refcount. Hence, rename Device::from_raw() to avoid confuion with other "from_raw" semantics. The new name of function should be "get_device" to be consistent with the function get_device() already exist in .c files. This function body also changed, because the `into()` will convert the `&'a Device` into `ARef<Device>` and also call `inc_ref` from the `AlwaysRefCounted` trait implemented for Device.
