Eviction changes allowing to evict (remap) cachelines while
holding hash bucket write lock instead of global metadata
write lock.
As eviction (replacement) is now tightly coupled with request,
each request uses eviction size equal to number of its
unmapped cachelines.
Evicting without global metadata write lock is possible
thanks to the fact that remaping is always performed
while exclusively holding cacheline (read or write) lock.
So for a cacheline on LRU list we acquire cacheline lock,
safely resolve hash and consequently write-lock hash bucket.
Since cacheline lock is acquired under hash bucket (everywhere
except for new eviction implementation), we are certain that
noone acquires cacheline lock behind our back. Concurrent
eviction threads are eliminated by holding eviction list
lock for the duration of critial locking operations.

Cacheline concurrency functions have their interface changed
so that the cacheline concurrency private context is
explicitly on the parameter list, rather than being taken
from cache->device->concurrency.cache_line.
Cache pointer is no longer provided as a parameter to these
functions. Cacheline concurrency context now has a pointer
to cache structure (for logging purposes only).
The purpose of this change is to facilitate unit testing.

1. new abbreviated previx: ocf_hb (HB stands for hash bucket)
2. clear distinction between functions requiring caller to
hold metadata shared global lock ("naked") vs the ones
which acquire global lock on its own ("prot" for protected)
3. clear distinction between hash bucket locking functions
accepting hash bucket id ("id"), core line and lba ("cline")
and entire request ("req").
Resulting naming scheme:
ocf_hb_(id/cline/req)_(prot/naked)_(lock/unlock/trylock)_(rd/wr)

If there is any dirty data on the cache associated with removed core,
we must flush collision metadata after removing core to make metadata
persistent in case of dirty shutdown.
This fixes the problem when recovery procedure erroneously interprets
cache lines that belonged to removed core as valid ones.
This also fixes the problem, when after removing core containing dirty
data another core is added, and then recovery procedure following dirty
shutdown assigns cache lines from removed core to the new one, effectively
leading to data corruption.

Min and max values, keept as an explicit number of cachelines, are tightly
coupled with particular cache. This might lead to errors and mismatches after
reattaching cache of different size.
To prevent those errors, min and max should be calculated dynamically.

Moving metadata implementation out of obsolete metadata_hash.c
to .c files corresponding to function declaration header files.
This requires adding shared header for metadata implementation
metadata_internal.h. Some metadata header files did not have
a corresponding .c file - in this case it is added in this
commit.

Metadata wrapper functions (calling iface->func) in header
files are changed to be declarations only. Hash interface
implementation functions in metadata_hash.c are given an
external linkage and are renamed to drop "hash" prefix.

Locks acquired in ocf_metadata_flush(/load)_all are
acquired only for the duration of queueing asynch
service for flush/load, no actual metadata accesses
are performed there.
Also flush/load all are always performed with metadata
marked as deinitialized (metadata reference counter freezed),
so no I/O is reading nor writing the metadata. The only source
of potential concurrent metadata accesses are other management
operations, which should be synchronized using management lock.
