Subject: [PATCH v5 1/1] Introduce pg_attribute_nonnull() and use it for
 DefineCustomXXXVariable().

pg_attribute_nonnull() can be used to generate compiler warnings
when a function is called with the specified arguments set to NULL.
An empty argument list indicates that all pointer arguments must
not be NULL.  pg_attribute_nonnull() only works for compilers that
support the nonnull function attribute.  If nonnull is not
supported, pg_attribute_nonnull() has no effect.

In addition to introducing pg_attribute_nonnull(), this change uses
it for the DefineCustomXXXVariable() functions to generate warnings
when the "name" and "valueAddr" arguments are set to NULL.
