init: verify that function is initcall_t at compile-time
In the spirit of making it hard to misuse an interface, add a compile-time assertion in the CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS case to verify the initcall function matches initcall_t, because the inline asm bypasses any type-checking the compiler would otherwise do. This will help developers catch incorrect API use in all configurations.
