Subject: [RFC 1/2] printk/dynamic_debug: Remove cyclic dependency between printk.h and dynamic_debug.h

`make headerdep` reports many circular dependencies with the same
pattern:

In file included from linux/printk.h,
                 from linux/dynamic_debug.h:188
                 from linux/printk.h:559 <-- here

It looks like false positive:

   + printk.h includes dynamic_debug.h when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE
   + dynamic_debug.h includes printk.h when !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE

Anyway, it would be great to get rid of this dependency because it is
tricky and it might hit us in the future. Also it might hide another
more complicated cyclic dependencies.

One solution would be to move the inlined ddebug_dyndbg_module_param_cb()
and dynamic_debug_exec_queries() from 'dynamic_debug.h' into some .c so
that it will not be needed to inline printk() in 'dynamic_debug.h'.

The obvious location would be 'lib/dynamic_debug.c'. But it is built
only when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE is set. And the problematic
inline variants are used only when this config option is _not_ set.
So that it is not that easy.

Instead, this patch adds 'include/linux/printk_core.h' and moves some
lowlevel printk API there. Then the raw _printk() can be called from
the inlined code in 'dynamic_debug.h'.

Note that it is not enough to declare _printk() in 'dynamic_debug.h'.
It would break build with CONFIG_PRINTK where it is an inlined nope.

The drawback of this approach is that _printk() does not add metadata for
printk indexing and the message is not listed in <debugfs>/printk/index/.
But it should be acceptable here. The strings are used only for debugging.

The advantage is that this approach might be used to solve other cyclic
dependencies, for example in bug.h.
