rust: sync: atomic: Clarify the need of CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW

Currently, since all the architectures that support Rust all have
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW selected, the helpers of atomic
load/store on i8 and i16 relies on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW=y.
It's generally fine since most of architectures support that.

The plan for CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW=n architectures is adding
their (probably lock-based) atomic load/store for i8 and i16 as their
atomic_{read,set}() and atomic64_{read,set}() counterpart when they
plans to support Rust.

Hence use a statis_assert!() to check this and remind the future us the
need of the helpers. This is more clear than the #[cfg] on impl blocks
of i8 and i16.
