cachefiles: implement on-demand read
Implement the data plane of on-demand read mode. The early implementation [1] place the entry to cachefiles_ondemand_read() in fscache_read(). However, fscache_read() can only detect if the requested file range is fully cache miss, whilst we need to notify the user daemon as long as there's a hole inside the requested file range. Thus the entry is now placed in cachefiles_prepare_read(). When working in on-demand read mode, once a hole detected, the read routine will send a READ request to the user daemon. The user daemon needs to fetch the data and write it to the cache file. After sending the READ request, the read routine will hang there, until the READ request is handled by the user daemon. Then it will retry to read from the same file range. If no progress encountered, the read routine will fail then. A new NETFS_SREQ_ONDEMAND flag is introduced to indicate that on-demand read should be done when a cache miss encountered.
