kcsan, compiler_types: Introduce __data_racy type qualifier

Based on the discussion at [1], it would be helpful to mark certain
variables as explicitly "data racy", which would result in KCSAN not
reporting data races involving any accesses on such variables. To do
that, introduce the __data_racy type qualifier:

	struct foo {
		...
		int __data_racy bar;
		...
	};

In KCSAN-kernels, __data_racy turns into volatile, which KCSAN already
treats specially by considering them "marked". In non-KCSAN kernels the
type qualifier turns into no-op.

The generated code between KCSAN-instrumented kernels and non-KCSAN
kernels is already huge (inserted calls into runtime for every memory
access), so the extra generated code (if any) due to volatile for few
such __data_racy variables are unlikely to have measurable impact on
performance.
