xfs: introduce new internal log vector structure
The current log IO vector structure is a flat array and not
extensible. To make it possible to keep separate log IO vectors for
individual log items, we need a method of chaining log IO vectors
together.
Introduce a new log vector type that can be used to wrap the
existing log IO vectors on use that internally to the log. This
means that the existing external interface (xfs_log_write) does not
change and hence no changes to the transaction commit code are
required.
