scripts: fix gfp-translate after ___GFP_*_BITS conversion to an enum

Richard reports that since 772dd034 ("mm: enumerate all gfp flags"),
gfp-translate is broken, as the bit numbers are implicit, leaving the
shell script unable to extract them.  Even more, some bits are now at a
variable location, making it double extra hard to parse using a simple
shell script.

Use a brute-force approach to the problem by generating a small C stub
that will use the enum to dump the interesting bits.

As an added bonus, we are now able to identify invalid bits for a given
configuration.  As an added drawback, we cannot parse include files that
predate this change anymore.  Tough luck.
