assert.h: Try to evaluate assertions at compile time
Many places in coreboot seem to like to do things like
assert(CONFIG(SOME_KCONFIG));
This is somewhat suboptimal since assert() is a runtime check, so you
don't see that this fails until someone actually tries to boot it even
though the compiler is totally aware of it already. We already have the
dead_code() macro to do this better:
if (CONFIG(SOME_KCONFIG))
dead_code();
Rather than fixing all these and trying to carefully educate people
about which type of check is more appropriate in what situation, we can
just employ the magic of __builtin_constant_p() to automatically make
the former statement behave like the latter.
