rust: helpers: Add i8/i16 relaxed atomic helpers

Add READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE based helpers for i8 and i16 types to support
relaxed atomic operations in Rust.

While relaxed operations could be implemented purely in Rust using
read_volatile() and write_volatile(), using C's READ_ONCE() and
WRITE_ONCE() macros ensures complete consistency with the kernel
memory model.

These helpers expose different symbol names than their C counterparts
so they are split into atomic_ext.c instead of atomic.c. The symbol
names; the names make the interface Rust/C clear, consistent with
i32/i64.

[boqun: Rename the functions from {load,store} to {read,set} to avoid
future adjustment]
