The sendfile syscall's backing doSplice contained a race with regard to
blocking. If the first attempt failed with syserror.ErrWouldBlock and then
the blocking file became ready before registering a waiter, we would just
return the ErrWouldBlock (even if we were supposed to block).

This does not actually implement an efficient splice or sendfile. Rather, it
adds a generic plumbing to the file internals so that this can be added. All
file implementations use the stub fileutil.NoSplice implementation, which
causes sendfile and splice to fall back to an internal copy.
A basic splice system call interface is added, along with a test.

Currently the implementation matches the behavior of moving data
between two file descriptors. However, it does not implement this
through zero-copy movement. Thus, this code is a starting point
to build the more complex implementation.
