Write-only cache mode is similar to writeback, however read
operations do not promote data to cache. Reads are mostly serviced
by the core device, only dirty sectors are fetched from the cache.

ocf_request has always been first class citizen in OCF,
so lets place it along with another essential objects.

ocf_kick_cleaner() allows to perfom cleaning immediately.
Nop cleaning policy now returns new 'OCF_CLEANER_DISABLE' macro which indicates
that cleaing shouldn't be performed. To enable it back, ocf_kick_cleaner()
should be called.

As non-interruptible flushes are no longer triggered from OCF
internals, we can get rid of "interruption" argument and let
adapters handle it themselves.

This simplifies code by allowing to express programmer intent
explicitly and helps to avoid missing return statements (this patch
fixes at least one bug related to this).

This simplifies cases when we want to call completion callback
and immediately return from void-returning function, by allowing
to explicitly express programmers intent. That way we can avoid
cases when return statement is missing by mistake (this patch
fixes at least one bug related to this).

_ocf_mngt_cache_unplug context is now provided by the caller.
This way _ocf_mngt_cache_unplug returns only non-critical (cache write)
errors, allowing stop/detach operation to always proceed and optionally
finish with error. This eliminates the need for rolling back previous
stop/detach operations, which might turn out to be impossible e.g.
under memory pressure.

Errors not related to cache disk I/O failure should force
cache stop to return with error without deinitializing cache
instance.

This pointer is used to provide optional volume specific data
from the user down to bottom volume open callback. volume_params
is provided to OCF in ocf_mngt_cache_device_config.volume_params.

Cache is used during pipeline_destroy which means that
doing put_cache before destroying pipeline may result in
accessing memory that was freed.

This allows to reuse same step functions giving them different parameters
on each step.
Additionally move pipeline to utils, to make it accessible to other
subsystems of OCF (e.g. metadata).

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

NOTE: This patch only changes API that pretends to be asynchronous.
Most of management operations are still performed synchronously.
The real asynchronism will be introduced in the next patches.

- 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.
