Makefile.debug: support for -gz=zstd

Make DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED a choice; DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_NONE is the
default, DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZLIB uses zlib,
DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZSTD uses zstd.

This renames the existing KConfig option DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED to
DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZLIB so users upgrading may need to reset the new
Kconfigs.

Some quick N=1 measurements with du, /usr/bin/time -v, and bloaty:

That's only a 3.11% overall binary size savings over zlib, but at no
performance regression.

Kbuild: add Rust support

Having most of the new files in place, we now enable Rust support
in the build system, including `Kconfig` entries related to Rust,
the Rust configuration printer and a few other bits.

Makefile.debug: re-enable debug info for .S files

Alexey reported that the fraction of unknown filename instances in
kallsyms grew from ~0.3% to ~10% recently; Bill and Greg tracked it down
to assembler defined symbols, which regressed as a result of:

commit b8a9092330da ("Kbuild: do not emit debug info for assembly with LLVM_IAS=1")

In that commit, I allude to restoring debug info for assembler defined
symbols in a follow up patch, but it seems I forgot to do so in

commit a66049e2cf0e ("Kbuild: make DWARF version a choice")

Makefile.debug: set -g unconditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT

Dmitrii, Fangrui, and Mashahiro note:

Before GCC 11 and Clang 12 -gsplit-dwarf implicitly uses -g2.

Fix CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT for gcc-11+ & clang-12+ which now need -g
specified in order for -gsplit-dwarf to work at all.

-gsplit-dwarf has been mutually exclusive with -g since support for
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT was introduced in
commit 866ced950bcd ("kbuild: Support split debug info v4")
I don't think it ever needed to be.
