Chuck Lever 4b132aacb0 tools: Add xdrgen
Add a Python-based tool for translating XDR specifications into XDR
encoder and decoder functions written in the Linux kernel's C coding
style. The generator attempts to match the usual C coding style of
the Linux kernel's SunRPC consumers.

This approach is similar to the netlink code generator in
tools/net/ynl .

The maintainability benefits of machine-generated XDR code include:

- Stronger type checking
- Reduces the number of bugs introduced by human error
- Makes the XDR code easier to audit and analyze
- Enables rapid prototyping of new RPC-based protocols
- Hardens the layering between protocol logic and marshaling
- Makes it easier to add observability on demand
- Unit tests might be built for both the tool and (automatically)
  for the generated code

In addition, converting the XDR layer to use memory-safe languages
such as Rust will be easier if much of the code can be converted
automatically.
