Warnings about `foreign` and `static_assert` being unknown on Linux

[DavidEGrayson]

When I compile Ion with GCC on Linux, it prints a bunch of warnings from builtin/types.ion. It's been happening for a while now. Here is a shell session reproducing the issue.

I encountered and fixed this issue with commit: https://github.com/uucidl/bitwise/commit/688200250cfa5f7fd47cf24c187e52f86fd58a35 on my own repository.

I had similar problems and fixed it differently.

In ion.c in void init_compiler(void) append the following line at the end of the function: map_put(&decl_note_names, static_assert_name, (void *)1);
