    docs/misra: new rules addition
    
    For Dir 1.1, a document describing all implementation-defined behaviour
    (i.e. gcc-specific behavior) will be added to docs/misra, also including
    implementation-specific (gcc-specific) appropriate types for bit-field
    relevant to Rule 6.1.
    
    Rule 21.21 is lacking an example on gitlab but the rule is
    straightforward: we don't use stdlib at all in Xen.

+     - A "u" or "U" suffix shall be applied to all integer constants
+       that are represented in an unsigned type
+     - The rule asks that any integer literal that is implicitly
+       unsigned is made explicitly unsigned by using one of the
+       indicated suffixes.  As an example, on a machine where the int
+       type is 32-bit wide, 0x77777777 is signed whereas 0x80000000 is
+       (implicitly) unsigned. In order to comply with the rule, the
+       latter should be rewritten as either 0x80000000u or 0x80000000U.
+       Consistency considerations may suggest using the same suffix even
+       when not required by the rule. For instance, if one has:
+
+       Original: f(0x77777777); f(0x80000000);
+
+       one should do
