For now, enqueuing and dequeuing on-demand requests all start from
idx 0, this makes request distribution unfair. In the weighty
concurrent I/O scenario, the request stored in higher idx will starve.
Searching requests cyclically in cachefiles_ondemand_daemon_read,
makes distribution fairer.

The cache_size field of copen is specified by the user daemon.
If cache_size < 0, then the OPEN request is expected to fail,
while copen itself shall succeed. However, returning 0 is indeed
unexpected when cache_size is an invalid error code.
Fix this by returning error when cache_size is an invalid error code.

Implement the data plane of on-demand read mode.
The early implementation [1] place the entry to
cachefiles_ondemand_read() in fscache_read(). However, fscache_read()
can only detect if the requested file range is fully cache miss, whilst
we need to notify the user daemon as long as there's a hole inside the
requested file range.
Thus the entry is now placed in cachefiles_prepare_read(). When working
in on-demand read mode, once a hole detected, the read routine will send
a READ request to the user daemon. The user daemon needs to fetch the
data and write it to the cache file. After sending the READ request, the
read routine will hang there, until the READ request is handled by the
user daemon. Then it will retry to read from the same file range. If no
progress encountered, the read routine will fail then.
A new NETFS_SREQ_ONDEMAND flag is introduced to indicate that on-demand
read should be done when a cache miss encountered.

Notify the user daemon that cookie is going to be withdrawn, providing a
hint that the associated anonymous fd can be closed.
Be noted that this is only a hint. The user daemon may close the
associated anonymous fd when receiving the CLOSE request, then it will
receive another anonymous fd when the cookie gets looked up. Or it may
ignore the CLOSE request, and keep writing data through the anonymous
fd. However the next time the cookie gets looked up, the user daemon
will still receive another new anonymous fd.

Add a refcount to avoid the deadlock in on-demand read mode. The
on-demand read mode will pin the corresponding cachefiles object for
each anonymous fd. The cachefiles object is unpinned when the anonymous
fd gets closed. When the user daemon exits and the fd of
"/dev/cachefiles" device node gets closed, it will wait for all
cahcefiles objects getting withdrawn. Then if there's any anonymous fd
getting closed after the fd of the device node, the user daemon will
hang forever, waiting for all objects getting withdrawn.
To fix this, add a refcount indicating if there's any object pinned by
anonymous fds. The cachefiles cache gets unbound and withdrawn when the
refcount is decreased to 0. It won't change the behaviour of the
original mode, in which case the cachefiles cache gets unbound and
withdrawn as long as the fd of the device node gets closed.

Fscache/CacheFiles used to serve as a local cache for a remote
networking fs. A new on-demand read mode will be introduced for
CacheFiles, which can boost the scenario where on-demand read semantics
are needed, e.g. container image distribution.
The essential difference between these two modes is seen when a cache
miss occurs: In the original mode, the netfs will fetch the data from
the remote server and then write it to the cache file; in on-demand
read mode, fetching the data and writing it into the cache is delegated
to a user daemon.
As the first step, notify the user daemon when looking up cookie. In
this case, an anonymous fd is sent to the user daemon, through which the
user daemon can write the fetched data to the cache file. Since the user
daemon may move the anonymous fd around, e.g. through dup(), an object
ID uniquely identifying the cache file is also attached.
Also add one advisory flag (FSCACHE_ADV_WANT_CACHE_SIZE) suggesting that
the cache file size shall be retrieved at runtime. This helps the
scenario where one cache file contains multiple netfs files, e.g. for
the purpose of deduplication. In this case, netfs itself has no idea the
size of the cache file, whilst the user daemon should give the hint on
it.
