[PATCH v4 2/6] compiler.h: Introduce TYPEOF_UNQUAL() macro

[Uros Bizjak]

Define TYPEOF_UNQUAL() to use __typeof_unqual__() as typeof operator
when available, to return unqualified type of the expression.

Current version of sparse doesn't know anything about __typeof_unqual__()
operator. Avoid the usage of __typeof_unqual__() when sparse checking
is active to prevent sparse errors with unknowing keyword.

v2: - Add comment to remove test for __CHECKER__ once sparse learns
      about __typeof_unqual__.
v4: - Do not auto-detect compiler support for __typeof_unqual__()
