block, badblocks: introduce devm_init_badblocks
Provide a devres interface for initializing a badblocks instance.  The
pmem driver has several scenarios where it will be beneficial to have
this structure automatically freed when the device is disabled / fails
probe.

badblocks: rename badblocks_free to badblocks_exit
For symmetry with badblocks_init() make it clear that this path only
destroys incremental allocations of a badblocks instance, and does not
free the badblocks instance itself.

badblocks: Add core badblock management code
Take the core badblocks implementation from md, and make it generally
available. This follows the same style as kernel implementations of
linked lists, rb-trees etc, where you can have a structure that can be
embedded anywhere, and accessor functions to manipulate the data.

The only changes in this copy of the code are ones to generalize
function/variable names from md-specific ones. Also add init and free
functions.
