memlayout: Store region sizes as separate symbols
This patch changes the memlayout macro infrastructure so that the size of a region "xxx" (i.e. the distance between the symbols _xxx and _exxx) is stored in a separate _xxx_size symbol. This has the advantage that region sizes can be used inside static initializers, and also saves an extra subtraction at runtime. Since linker symbols can only be treated as addresses (not as raw integers) by C, retain the REGION_SIZE() accessor macro to hide the necessary typecast.
