Kernel: static vs non-static constexpr variables

Browse source 
Problem:
- `static` variables consume memory and sometimes are less
  optimizable.
- `static const` variables can be `constexpr`, usually.
- `static` function-local variables require an initialization check
  every time the function is run.

Solution:
- If a global `static` variable is only used in a single function then
  move it into the function and make it non-`static` and `constexpr`.
- Make all global `static` variables `constexpr` instead of `const`.
- Change function-local `static const[expr]` variables to be just
  `constexpr`.
