Kconfig: Introduce CONFIG_WERROR
Add a new config option under "General setup" to enable the -Werror flag when building U-Boot. This is useful during development to help catch mistakes. This is based on a similar config option added to the Linux kernel by Linus in 2021 - see Linux commit 3fe617ccafd6 ("Enable '-Werror' by default for all kernel builds"). The modification of KBUILD_CFLAGS is done in Makefile.extrawarn, matching where it was moved in the kernel by Linux commit e88ca24319e4 ("kbuild: consolidate warning flags in scripts/Makefile.extrawarn").

+ bool "Compile U-Boot with warnings as errors"
+ help
+ A U-Boot build should not cause any compiler warnings, and this
+ enables the '-Werror' flag to enforce that rule.
+
+ However, if you have a new (or very old) compiler or linker with odd
+ and unusual warnings, or you have some architecture with problems,
+ you may need to disable this config option in order to
