Currently, the define_read!() and define_write!() I/O macros are crate
public. The only user outside of the I/O module is PCI (for the
configurations space I/O backend). Consequently, when CONFIG_PCI=n this
causes a compile time warning [1].
In order to fix this, rename the macros to io_define_read!() and
io_define_write!() and use #[macro_export] to export them.
This is better than making the crate public visibility conditional, as
eventually subsystems will have their own crate.
Also, I/O backends are valid to be implemented by drivers as well. For
instance, there are devices (such as GPUs) that run firmware which
allows to program other devices only accessible through the primary
device through indirect I/O.
Since the macros are now public, also add the corresponding
documentation.
