kcsan: Rate-limit reporting per data races

Browse Source 
KCSAN data-race reports can occur quite frequently, so much so as
to render the system useless.  This commit therefore adds support for
time-based rate-limiting KCSAN reports, with the time interval specified
by a new KCSAN_REPORT_ONCE_IN_MS Kconfig option.  The default is 3000
milliseconds, also known as three seconds.

Because KCSAN must detect data races in allocators and in other contexts
where use of allocation is ill-advised, a fixed-size array is used to
buffer reports during each reporting interval.  To reduce the number of
reports lost due to array overflow, this commit stores only one instance
of duplicate reports, which has the benefit of further reducing KCSAN's
console output rate.

help
Any given data race is only reported once in the defined time window.
Different data races may still generate reports within a duration
that is smaller than the duration defined here. This allows rate
limiting reporting to avoid flooding the console with reports.
Setting this to 0 disables rate limiting.
