selftest: size: Add size test for Linux kernel

This test shows the amount of memory used by the system.
Note that this is dependent on the user-space that is loaded
when this program runs.  Optimally, this program would be
run as the init program itself.

The program is optimized for size itself, to avoid conflating
its own execution with that of the system software.
The code is compiled statically, with no stdlibs. On my x86_64 system,
this results in a statically linked binary of less than 5K.

+ * Selftest for runtime system size
+ *
+ * Prints the amount of RAM that the currently running system is using.
+ *
+ * This program tries to be as small as possible itself, to
+ * avoid perturbing the system memory utilization with its
+ * own execution.  It also attempts to have as few dependencies
+ * on kernel features as possible.
+ *
+ * It should be statically linked, with startup libs avoided.
+ * It uses no library calls, and only the following 3 syscalls:
+ *   sysinfo(), write(), and _exit()
+ *
+ * For output, it avoids printf (which in some C libraries
+ * has large external dependencies) by  implementing it's own
+ * number output and print routines, and using __builtin_strlen()
