Add ObsKernelParam, a #[repr(C)] struct that mirrors the C
obs_kernel_param structure used by the __setup / early_param
infrastructure to register boot-time command-line handlers.
The struct contains:
- str_: pointer to the null-terminated setup string
- setup_func: the callback invoked when the kernel parses the
matching command-line token
- early: flag distinguishing early_param (1) from __setup (0)
Mark it Sync because instances are written at compile time and only
read during single-threaded early boot initialization.
This type will be used by the module! macro to emit __setup entries
in the .init.setup ELF section in subsequent patches.
