include: drop pointless __compiler_offsetof indirection

(1) compiler_types.h is unconditionally included via an -include flag
    (see scripts/Makefile.lib), and it defines __compiler_offsetof
    unconditionally.  So testing for definedness of __compiler_offsetof is
    mostly pointless.

(2) Every relevant compiler provides __builtin_offsetof (even sparse
    has had that for 14 years), and if for whatever reason one would end
    up picking up the poor man's fallback definition (C file compiler with
    completely custom CFLAGS?), newer clang versions won't treat the
    result as an Integer Constant Expression, so if used in place where
    such is required (static initializer or static_assert), one would get
    errors like

      t.c:11:16: error: static_assert expression is not an integral constant expression
      t.c:11:16: note: cast that performs the conversions of a reinterpret_cast is not allowed in a constant expression
      t.c:4:33: note: expanded from macro 'offsetof'
      #define offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER)  ((size_t)&((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER)

So just define offsetof unconditionally and directly in terms of
__builtin_offsetof.
