netfs: Speed up buffered reading
Improve the efficiency of buffered reads in a number of ways:

 (1) Overhaul the algorithm in general so that it's a lot more compact and
     split the read submission code between buffered and unbuffered
     versions.  The unbuffered version can be vastly simplified.

 (2) Read-result collection is handed off to a work queue rather than being
     done in the I/O thread.  Multiple subrequests can be processes
     simultaneously.

 (3) When a subrequest is collected, any folios it fully spans are
     collected and "spare" data on either side is donated to either the
     previous or the next subrequest in the sequence.

Notes:

 (*) Readahead expansion is massively slows down fio, presumably because it
     causes a load of extra allocations, both folio and xarray, up front
     before RPC requests can be transmitted.

 (*) RDMA with cifs does appear to work, both with SIW and RXE.

 (*) PG_private_2-based reading and copy-to-cache is split out into its own
     file and altered to use folio_queue.  Note that the copy to the cache
     now creates a new write transaction against the cache and adds the
     folios to be copied into it.  This allows it to use part of the
     writeback I/O code.
