init: Kconfig: Disable -Wstringop-overflow for GCC-11
-Wstringop-overflow is buggy in GCC-11. Therefore, we should disable
this option specifically for that compiler version. To achieve this,
we introduce a new configuration option: GCC11_NO_STRINGOP_OVERFLOW.
The compiler option related to string operation overflow is now managed
under configuration CC_STRINGOP_OVERFLOW. This option is enabled by
default for all other versions of GCC that support it.
