Startup code that may execute from the early 1:1 mapping of memory will
be confined into its own address space, and only be permitted to access
ordinary kernel symbols if this is known to be safe.
Introduce a macro helper SYM_PIC_ALIAS() that emits a __pi_ prefixed
alias for a symbol, which allows startup code to access it.
