drm/i915: Keep timeline HWSP allocated until idle across the system

In preparation for enabling HW semaphores, we need to keep in flight
timeline HWSP alive until its use across entire system has completed,
as any other timeline active on the GPU may still refer back to the
already retired timeline. We both have to delay recycling available
cachelines and unpinning old HWSP until the next idle point.

An easy option would be to simply keep all used HWSP until the system as
a whole was idle, i.e. we could release them all at once on parking.
However, on a busy system, we may never see a global idle point,
essentially meaning the resource will be leaked until we are forced to
do a GC pass. We already employ a fine-grained idle detection mechanism
for vma, which we can reuse here so that each cacheline can be freed
immediately after the last request using it is retired.

v3: Keep track of the activity of each cacheline.
v4: cacheline_free() on canceling the seqno tracking
v5: Finally with a testcase to exercise wraparound
v6: Pack cacheline into empty bits of page-aligned vaddr
v7: Use i915_utils to hide the pointer casting around bit manipulation
