Subject: [PATCH 1/3] tools/nolibc: add prototypes for non-static functions

With -Wmissing-prototypes the compiler will warn about non-static
functions which don't have a prototype defined.
This warning doesn't make much sense for nolibc itself but for user code
it is still useful.
To pacify the compiler add prototypes next to the function definitions,
similar to how it is handled elsewhere in the kernel.
