    cdefs: Add __writeonly to mark write only vars
    
    When a variable in write only and can't be removed, e.g. for API
    reasons, it is useful to document this fact similar to __diagused
    and __witness_used.
    
    Add __writeonly to tell the compiler and anyone looking at the code
    that this variable is expected to only be written to, and to not
    raise and error.
