New structure ocf_part is added to contain all the data common for both
user partitions and freelist partition: part_runtime and part_id.
ocf_user_part now contains ocf_part structure as well as pointer to
cleaning partition runtime metadata (moved out from part_runtime) and
user partition config (no change here).

Move ref counts to their own cacheline - otherwise they pollute and cause
false sharing to fields nearby and cause a lot of cache bouncing between
physical CPUs.

Grouping static fields together, while often changing ones get their own
cacheline, or some not used often/important fields.

To eliminate possibility of allocation error in cache stop, pipeline is
allocated on attach.
Due this change, the only possible non-zero status of ocf_mngt_cache_stop() is
just a warning and cache is always stopped after executing it.

Global free cacheline list is divided into a set of freelists, one
per execution context. When attempting to map addres to cache, first
the freelist for current execution context is considered (fast path).
If current execution context freelist is empty (fast path failure),
mapping function attempts to get freelist from other execution context
list (slow path).
The purpose of this change is improve concurrency in freelist access.
It is part of fine granularity metadata lock implementation.

Promotion policy is supposed to perform ALRU noise filtering by
eliminating one-hit wonders being added to cache and polluting it.

NOTE: This is still not the real asynchronism. Metadata interfaces
are still not fully asynchronous.

- Queue allocation is now separated from starting cache.
- Queue can be created and destroyed in runtime.
- All queue ops accept queue handle instead of queue id.
- Cache stores queues as list instead of array.

Instead of switching write policy to pass-through, barrier is rised
by incrementing counter in ocf_cache_t structure.
