* Introduced type generic_io_vec, which is similar to iovec, but uses types
that are wide enough for both virtual and physical addresses.
* DMABuffer, IORequest, IOScheduler,... and code using them: Use
generic_io_vec and generic_{addr,size}_t where necessary.

* Introduced IOScheduler::MediaChanged() - this is now called by scsi_cd instead
of having the logic be triggered by IOScheduler::SetDeviceCapacity(), as that
one might actually be called more often (for each call to update_capacity(),
ie. each B_GET_GEOMETRY/B_GET_DEVICE_SIZE will trigger it), and there is no
reason to throw away the cache every time (will make a difference during
partition/file system detection).
* In cd_init_device() just call update_capacity() instead of duplicating its
code.

IOCache implements IOScheduler, now.

Essentially rewrote the IOCache to use a VMCache and unmapped pages for
caching (similar to the file cache) instead of contiguous areas. This is
probably a little bit slower, but integrates better with the VM -- the
caching doesn't increase memory pressure and the least recently used pages
will automatically be recycled when needed.
There are still memory allocation issues on machines with little memory. The
USB stack apparently tries to allocate a rather big chunk of contiguous
memory, which fails when all not otherwise bound memory is used for caches,
since the VM functions for allocating contiguous memory consider only free
pages ATM.

Added IOCache, a simple write-through cache implementation that can be used
as a drop-in replacement for IOScheduler, processing IORequests synchronously
in FIFO order. It stores cache lines of user-defined size. Currently for each
cache line an area of contiguous memory is used, which is not optimal.
