[PATCH v3 4/7] bitops: define const_*() versions of the non-atomics

[Alexander Lobakin]

Define const_*() variants of the non-atomic bitops to be used when
the input arguments are compile-time constants, so that the compiler
will be always able to resolve those to compile-time constants as
well. Those are mostly direct aliases for generic_*() with one
exception for const_test_bit(): the original one is declared
atomic-safe and thus doesn't discard the `volatile` qualifier, so
in order to let optimize code, define it separately disregarding
the qualifier.
Add them to the compile-time type checks as well just in case.
