[PATCH v2 1/3] rust: const_eval: add `#[const_eval_only]` attribute

[Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net>]

We have a lot of helper const functions which are intended to be used
during const evaluation only and runtime calls should not be generated. Add
a macro to denote this explicitly. This is similar to C++'s consteval
keyword.

Convert device_id.rs as an example.
