Introduce a new `safety` module containing `unsafe_precondition_assert!`
macro. It is a wrapper around `debug_assert!`, intended for validating
preconditions of unsafe function.
When `CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS` flag is enabled, this macro performs
runtime checks to ensure that the preconditions for unsafe function hold.
Otherwise, the macro is a no-op.
