David Howells 4722974d90 rxrpc: Implement service upgrade
Implement AuriStor's service upgrade facility.  There are three problems
that this is meant to deal with:

 (1) Various of the standard AFS RPC calls have IPv4 addresses in their
     requests and/or replies - but there's no room for including IPv6
     addresses.

 (2) Definition of IPv6-specific RPC operations in the standard operation
     sets has not yet been achieved.

 (3) One could envision the creation a new service on the same port that as
     the original service.  The new service could implement improved
     operations - and the client could try this first, falling back to the
     original service if it's not there.

     Unfortunately, certain servers ignore packets addressed to a service
     they don't implement and don't respond in any way - not even with an
     ABORT.  This means that the client must then wait for the call timeout
     to occur.

What service upgrade does is to see if the connection is marked as being
'upgradeable' and if so, change the service ID in the server and thus the
request and reply formats.  Note that the upgrade isn't mandatory - a
server that supports only the original call set will ignore the upgrade
request.

In the protocol, the procedure is then as follows:

 (1) To request an upgrade, the first DATA packet in a new connection must
     have the userStatus set to 1 (this is normally 0).  The userStatus
     value is normally ignored by the server.

 (2) If the server doesn't support upgrading, the reply packets will
     contain the same service ID as for the first request packet.

 (3) If the server does support upgrading, all future reply packets on that
     connection will contain the new service ID and the new service ID will
     be applied to *all* further calls on that connection as well.

 (4) The RPC op used to probe the upgrade must take the same request data
     as the shadow call in the upgrade set (but may return a different
     reply).  GetCapability RPC ops were added to all standard sets for
     just this purpose.  Ops where the request formats differ cannot be
     used for probing.

 (5) The client must wait for completion of the probe before sending any
     further RPC ops to the same destination.  It should then use the
     service ID that recvmsg() reported back in all future calls.

 (6) The shadow service must have call definitions for all the operation
     IDs defined by the original service.


To support service upgrading, a server should:

 (1) Call bind() twice on its AF_RXRPC socket before calling listen().
     Each bind() should supply a different service ID, but the transport
     addresses must be the same.  This allows the server to receive
     requests with either service ID.

 (2) Enable automatic upgrading by calling setsockopt(), specifying
     RXRPC_UPGRADEABLE_SERVICE and passing in a two-member array of
     unsigned shorts as the argument:

	unsigned short optval[2];

     This specifies a pair of service IDs.  They must be different and must
     match the service IDs bound to the socket.  Member 0 is the service ID
     to upgrade from and member 1 is the service ID to upgrade to.
