nilfs2: add routines to roll back state of DAT file



This adds optional function to metadata files which makes a copy of
bmap, page caches, and b-tree node cache, and rolls back to the copy
as needed.

This enhancement is intended to displace gcdat inode that provides a
similar function in a different way.

In this patch, nilfs_shadow_map structure is added to store a copy of
the foregoing states.  nilfs_mdt_setup_shadow_map relates this
structure to a metadata file.  And, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map() and
nilfs_mdt_restore_from_shadow_map() provides save and restore
functions respectively.  Finally, nilfs_mdt_clear_shadow_map() clears
states of nilfs_shadow_map.

The copy of b-tree node cache and page cache is made by duplicating
only dirty pages into corresponding caches in nilfs_shadow_map.  Their
restoration is done by clearing dirty pages from original caches and
by copying dirty pages back from nilfs_shadow_map.
