Robin Hsu 70c5bab971 libf2fs_io: Add user-space cache
Implemented cache options in F2FS configuration 'c' (i.e. user
options):
    * use c.cache_config.num_cache_entry to set the number of
      cache entries (in block), minimum 1024, or 0 to disable cache.
    * use c.cache_config.max_hash_collision to set maximum hash
      collision (max 16).
    * use c.cavhe_config.dbg_en to enable printing of debug messages.

Cache properties:
    * Per block save based (block size = f2fs block size = 4K Bytes)
    * Device block indices are used to hash (simple modular hash
      function) to cache indices.
    * A hash collision (when a block is hashed to an already occupied
      cache block) will trigger offset-based relocation to max 16
      other places, at first empty slot found policy.
    * A hash collision with all 17 possible relocating places occupied
      will evict the oldest used one (replaced by the new read block).
      A global 'use' tick is kept ticking-up per block read for this
      purpose.
    * On write cache hit, it will update the corresponding cached
      block.
    * On write cache miss, the data won't be cached.
    * Write-through policy only: never delayed write.
    * On read cache hit, it returns the cached block.
    * On read cache miss, it issues an I/O read to the kernel, and
      then caches and returns the block.
    * Currently read ahead is not implemented.  Yet, the read ahead
      logic is kept as before, i.e. using kernel's read ahead
      mechanism.
