[PATCH 1/4] kbuild: allow global override of CC instrumentation

Currently, we have a number of compiler instrumentation features, each
with its own overrides to disable instrumentation of a file or
directory.

In a few cases, there are files with special ABI requirements, for which
we need to avoid all instrumentation. Having to apply each override
manually is tedious, and error-prone as new instrumentation features are
introduced.

To make matters easier, this patch adds a new CC_INSTRUMENT override,
allowing instrumentation to be avoided for certain files or directories.
This can also be overridden on a per-file or per-directory basis, to
allow opting in to some instrumentation.
