kbuild: compile-test kernel headers to ensure they are self-contained
The headers in include/ are globally used in the kernel source tree to provide common APIs. They are included from external modules, too. It will be useful to make as many headers self-contained as possible so that we do not have to rely on a specific include order. There are more than 4000 headers in include/. In my rough analysis, 70% of them are already self-contained. With efforts, most of them can be self-contained. For now, we must exclude more than 1000 headers just because they cannot be compiled as standalone units. I added them to header-test-. The blacklist was mostly generated by a script, so the reason of the breakage should be checked later.
