global-data.h: add build-time sanity check of sizeof(struct global_data)

The layout and contents of struct global_data depends on a lot of
CONFIG_* preprocessor macros, not all of which are entirely converted
to Kconfig - not to mention weird games played here and there. This
can result in one translation unit using one definition of struct
global_data while the actual layout is another.

That can be very hard to debug. But we already have a mechanism that
can help catch such bugs at build time, namely the asm-offsets
machinery which is necessary anyway to provide assembly code with the
necessary constants. So make sure that every C translation unit that
include global_data.h actually sees the same size of struct
global_data as that which was seen by the asm-offsets.c TU.

It is likely that this patch will break the build of some boards. For
example, without the patch from Matt Merhar
(https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2021-May/450135.html) or some
other fix, this breaks P2041RDB_defconfig:
