[RESEND PATCH v3 3/4] configfs: implement committable items

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This implements configfs committable items. We mostly follow the
documentation except that we extend config_group_ops with uncommit_item()
callback for reverting the changes made by commit_item().

Each committable group has two sub-directories: pending and live. New
items can only be created in pending/. Attributes can only be modified
while the item is in pending/. Once it's ready to be committed, it must
be moved over to live/ using the rename() system call. This is when the
commit_item() function will be called.

Implementation-wise: we reuse the default group mechanism to elegantly
plug the new pseude-groups into configfs. The pending group inherits the
parent group's operations so that config_items can be seamlesly created
in it using the callbacks supplied by the user as part of the committable
group itself.

-Note:
-     Committable items are currently unimplemented.

 Some config_items cannot have a valid initial state.  That is, no
 default values can be specified for the item's attributes such that the
 item can do its work.  Userspace must configure one or more attributes,
