Parcelize: Add an intrinsic to access Parcelable CREATOR fields

Fixes KT-19853.

The CREATOR field is a static field on a Parcelable class which is not
visible from Kotlin since the necessary metadata would have to be in a
Companion object which may not exist.

This commit adds a [parcelableCreator] function to kotlinx.parcelize,
which is optimized to a direct field access whenever possible.
