Subject: [PATCH RFC 01/24] compiler_types: Move lock checking attributes to compiler-capability-analysis.h

The conditional definition of lock checking macros and attributes is
about to become more complex. Factor them out into their own header for
better readability, and to make it obvious which features are supported
by which mode (currently only Sparse). This is the first step towards
generalizing towards "capability analysis".

No functional change intended.
