Kbuild: add compile_commands.json target

The JSON compilation database format specification describes a
compile_commands.json file that lists how translation units are
compiled by a build system. This makes integration of external tools,
like IDEs, LSP servers and static analyzers easier.

Import the Linux bits. The database can now be manually generated
with make compile_commands.json.
