Subject: [PATCH v4 8/9] bug.h: Add BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG & _BUILD_BUG_INTERNAL

Add BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG which behaves like BUILD_BUG_ON (with optimizations
enabled), except that it allows you to specify the error message you
want emitted as the third parameter.  Under the hood, this relies on
_BUILD_BUG_INTERNAL, which does the actual work and is pretty-much
identical to BUILD_BUG_ON.
