Project:Branches: Yash/rtems:annex-k-implementation to rtems/rtos/rtems:main
Author: YASH BHIWANIA
Closes #5434
## Summary
This MR implements `memset_s()` (Secure Memory Set) as defined in ISO/IEC 9899:2011 Annex K.
## Motivation
RTEMS currently lacks the C11 bounds-checking interfaces. This function provides a secure alternative to `memset` that:
1. Guarantees the write is not optimized away (Dead Store Elimination).
2. Enforces runtime constraints (NULL pointers, `RSIZE_MAX`).
## Implementation Details
* Added `memset_s.c` to `cpukit/libcsupport/src/`.
* Registered the file in `spec/build/cpukit/librtemscpu.yml`.
* Implementation strictly follows C11 K.3.7.4.1.
## Note to Reviewers
This is a baseline implementation intended to support my GSoC 2026 proposal for the full C11 Annex K suite. I welcome feedback on the coding style and integration approach.
