locking/rwsem: Add CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER
Just like with mutexes (CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER), encapsulate the dependencies for rwsem optimistic spinning. No logical changes here as it continues to depend on both SMP and the XADD algorithm variant.

locking/rwsem: Support optimistic spinning
We have reached the point where our mutexes are quite fine tuned
for a number of situations. This includes the use of heuristics
and optimistic spinning, based on MCS locking techniques.
Exclusive ownership of read-write semaphores are, conceptually,
just about the same as mutexes, making them close cousins. To
this end we need to make them both perform similarly, and
right now, rwsems are simply not up to it. This was discovered
by both reverting commit

locking: Move the rwsem code to kernel/locking/
Notably: changed lib/rwsem* targets from lib- to obj-, no idea about the ramifications of that.
