Rename Pin to PinMut

As discussed at [1] §3 and [2] and [3], a formal look at pinning requires considering a
distinguished "shared pinned" mode/typestate.  Given that, it seems desirable to
at least eventually actually expose that typestate as a reference type.  This
renames Pin to PinMut, freeing the name Pin in case we want to use it for a
shared pinned reference later on.
