xfs: one-shot cached buffers 

For the new growfs work, we want to ensure that we serialise
secondary superblock updates with other operations (e.g. scrub)
correctly, but we don't want to cache the buffers for long term
reuse. We need cached buffers for serialisation, however.

To solve this, introduce a "oneshot" buffer which will be marshalled
through the cache but then released once the last current reference
goes away. If the buffer is already cached, then we ignore the
"one-shot" behaviour and leave the buffer in the state it was prior
to the one-shot command being run. This means we don't perturb
either the working set or existing cached buffer state by a one-shot
operation.
