afs: Implement VL server rotation
Track VL servers as independent entities rather than lumping all their
addresses together into one set and implement server-level rotation by:
(1) Add the concept of a VL server list, where each server has its own
separate address list. This code is similar to the FS server list.
(2) Use the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.
(3) In the case of a legacy DNS resolver or an address list given directly
through /proc/net/afs/cells, create a list containing just a dummy
server record and attach all the addresses to that.
(4) Implement a simple rotation policy, for the moment ignoring the
priorities and weights assigned to the servers.
(5) Show the address list through /proc/net/afs/<cell>/vlservers. This
also displays the source and status of the data as indicated by the
upcall.
