block: add helpers to bounce buffer an iov_iter into bios

Add helpers to implement bounce buffering of data into a bio to implement
direct I/O for cases where direct user access is not possible because
stable in-flight data is required.  These are intended to be used as
easily as bio_iov_iter_get_pages for the zero-copy path.

The write side is trivial and just copies data into the bounce buffer.
The read side is a lot more complex because it needs to perform the copy
from the completion context, and without preserving the iov_iter through
the call chain.  It steals a trick from the integrity data user interface
and uses the first vector in the bio for the bounce buffer data that is
fed to the block I/O stack, and uses the others to record the user
buffer fragments.
