9pfs: add new function v9fs_co_readdir_many()

The newly added function v9fs_co_readdir_many() retrieves multiple
directory entries with a single fs driver request. It is intended to
replace uses of v9fs_co_readdir(), the latter only retrieves a
single directory entry per fs driver request instead.

The reason for this planned replacement is that for every fs driver
request the coroutine is dispatched from main I/O thread to a
background I/O thread and eventually dispatched back to main I/O
thread. Hopping between threads adds latency. So if a 9pfs Treaddir
request reads a large amount of directory entries, this currently
sums up to huge latencies of several hundred ms or even more. So
using v9fs_co_readdir_many() instead of v9fs_co_readdir() will
provide significant performance improvements.
