ITER_PIPE: helpers for adding pipe buffers
There are only two kinds of pipe_buffer in the area used by ITER_PIPE. 1) anonymous - copy_to_iter() et.al. end up creating those and copying data there. They have zero ->offset, and their ->ops points to default_pipe_page_ops. 2) zero-copy ones - those come from copy_page_to_iter(), and page comes from caller. ->offset is also caller-supplied - it might be non-zero. ->ops points to page_cache_pipe_buf_ops. Move creation and insertion of those into helpers - push_anon(pipe, size) and push_page(pipe, page, offset, size) resp., separating them from the "could we avoid creating a new buffer by merging with the current head?" logics.
