Alexei Frolov 0944784e8e Minor pw_bloat updates
This change renames the bloat_report template to pw_size_report as it is
more explicit.

Additionally, the option to override the global Bloaty config file on a
per-report basis is removed. This is due to Pigweed's policy of having
one target per build invocation. The Bloaty config is inherently tied to
an executable build target and linker script, both of which are provided
by the target. Overriding the Bloaty config without changing the target
can result in meaningless report output.

The bloat module provides tools to generate size report cards for output
binaries.

Documentation integration
=========================
Bloat reports are easy to add to documentation files. All ``pw_size_report``
targets output a ``.rst`` file containing a tabular report card. This file
can be imported directly into a documentation file using the ``include``
directive.
For example, the ``simple_bloat`` bloat report under ``//pw_bloat/examples``
is imported into this file as follows:
.. code:: rst
.. include:: examples/simple_bloat.rst
Resulting in this output:
.. include:: examples/simple_bloat.rst
