rust: add `build_error` crate

The `build_error` crate provides a function `build_error` which
will panic at compile-time if executed in const context and,
by default, will cause a build error if not executed at compile
time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call.

The `CONFIG_RUST_BUILD_ASSERT_ALLOW` kernel option allows to
relax the default build failure and convert it to a runtime
check. If the runtime check fails, `panic!` will be called.

Its functionality will be exposed to users as a couple macros in
the `kernel` crate in the following patch, thus some documentation
here refers to them for simplicity.

Controls how are `build_error!` and `build_assert!` handled during build.
If calls to them exist in the binary, it may indicate a violated invariant
or that the optimizer failed to verify the invariant during compilation.
This should not happen, thus by default the build is aborted. However,
as an escape hatch, you can choose Y here to ignore them during build
and let the check be carried at runtime (with `panic!` being called if
the check fails).
If unsure, say N.
