[PATCH v4 1/2] check-uapi: Introduce check-uapi.sh

While the kernel community has been good at maintaining backwards
compatibility with kernel UAPIs, it would be helpful to have a tool
to check if a commit introduces changes that break backwards
compatibility.
To that end, introduce check-uapi.sh: a simple shell script that
checks for changes to UAPI headers using libabigail.
libabigail is "a framework which aims at helping developers and
software distributors to spot some ABI-related issues like interface
incompatibility in ELF shared libraries by performing a static
analysis of the ELF binaries at hand."
The script uses one of libabigail's tools, "abidiff", to compile the
changed header before and after the commit to detect any changes.
abidiff "compares the ABI of two shared libraries in ELF format. It
emits a meaningful report describing the differences between the two
ABIs."
The script also includes the ability to check the compatibility of
all UAPI headers across commits. This allows developers to inspect
the stability of the UAPIs over time.

---
- Refactored to exclusively check headers installed by make
headers_install. This simplified the code dramatically and removed
the need to perform complex git diffs.
- Removed the "-m" flag. Since we're checking all installed headers
every time, a flag to check only modified files didn't make sense.
- Added info message when usr/include/Makefile is not present that
it's likely because that file was only introduced in v5.3.
- Changed default behavior of log file. Now, the script will not
create a log file unless you pass "-l <file>".
- Simplified exit handler.
- Added -j $MAX_THREADS to make headers_install to improve speed.
- Cleaned up variable references.

+$name - check for UAPI header stability across Git commits
+
+By default, the script will check to make sure the latest commit (or current
+dirty changes) did not introduce ABI changes when compared to HEAD^1. You can
+check against additional commit ranges with the -b and -p options.
+
+The script will not check UAPI headers for architectures other than the one
+defined in ARCH.
+
+Usage: $name [-b BASE_REF] [-p PAST_REF] [-j N] [-l ERROR_LOG] [-q] [-v]
+
+Options:
+ -b BASE_REF Base git reference to use for comparison. If unspecified or empty,
+ will use any dirty changes in tree to UAPI files. If there are no
+ dirty changes, HEAD will be used.
+ -p PAST_REF Compare BASE_REF to PAST_REF (e.g. -p v6.1). If unspecified or empty,
+ will use BASE_REF^1. Must be an ancestor of BASE_REF. Only headers
+ that exist on PAST_REF will be checked for compatibility.
+ -j JOBS Number of checks to run in parallel (default: number of CPU cores).
+ -l ERROR_LOG Write error log to file (default: no error log is generated).
+ -q Quiet operation (suppress all stdout, still print stderr).
+ -v Verbose operation (print more information about each header being checked).
+
+Environmental args:
+ ABIDIFF Custom path to abidiff binary
+ CC C compiler (default is "gcc")
+ ARCH Target architecture of C compiler (default is host arch)
+
+Exit codes:
+ $SUCCESS) Success
+ $FAIL_ABI) ABI difference detected
+ $FAIL_PREREQ) Prerequisite not met
+ $FAIL_COMPILE) Compilation error
