Add compiler_attributes.h defining two GCC visibility macros:
__public (__attribute__((visibility("default"))))
__weak (__attribute__((weak)))
Annotate all functions exported via libnvme.ld, libnvmf.ld, and
accessors.ld with __public. This prepares libnvme for builds with
-fvisibility=hidden, ensuring internal symbols are hidden by default
and only explicitly annotated functions form the public ABI.
Each affected .c file now includes compiler_attributes.h and marks
the relevant function definitions with __public. The accessor generator
has also been updated to emit __public, so future regenerations remain
consistent.
As a small related cleanup, __weak was introduced in
compiler_attributes.h and applied where needed. While not strictly part
of the main change, it naturally fits alongside the new attribute
definitions and keeps related compiler annotations consolidated.
