memlayout: Ensure TIMESTAMP() region is big enough to avoid BUG()
The timestamp code asserts that the _timestamp region (allocated in memlayout for pre-RAM stages) is large enough for the assumptions it makes. This is good, except that we often initialize timestamps extremely early in the bootblock, even before console output. Debugging a BUG() that hits before console_init() is no fun. This patch adds a link-time assertion for the size of the _timestamp region in memlayout to prevent people from accidentally running into this issue.
