lib/Kconfig.debug: Require a release version of LLVM 22 for context analysis

Using a prerelease version as a minimum supported version for
CONFIG_WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS was reasonable to do while LLVM 22 was the
development version so that people could immediately build from main and
start testing and validating this in their own code. However, it can be
problematic when using prerelease versions of LLVM 22, such as Android
clang 22.0.1 (the current android mainline compiler) or when bisecting
LLVM between llvmorg-22-init and llvmorg-23-init, to build the kernel,
as all compiler fixes for the context analysis may not be present,
potentially resulting in warnings that can easily turn into errors.

Now that LLVM 22 is released as 22.1.0, upgrade the check to require at
least this version to ensure that a user's toolchain actually has all
the changes needed for a smooth experience with context analysis.
