cleanup: Annotate guard constructors with nonnull
Add __nonnull_args() to unconditional guard constructors so the compiler warns when NULL is statically known to be passed: - DEFINE_GUARD(): re-declare the constructor with __nonnull_args(). - __DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_1(): annotate the constructor directly. DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_0() needs no annotation: its constructor takes no pointer arguments (.lock is hardcoded to (void *)1). Define the __nonnull_args() macro in compiler_attributes.h, following the existing convention for attribute wrappers. Deliberately not named '__nonnull', to avoid clashing with glibc's __nonnull() when kernel and userspace headers are combined (User Mode Linux for example).
