libceph: make message data be a pointer
Begin the transition from a single message data item to a list of them by replacing the "data" structure in a message with a pointer to a ceph_msg_data structure. A null pointer will indicate the message has no data; replace the use of ceph_msg_has_data() with a simple check for a null pointer. Create functions ceph_msg_data_create() and ceph_msg_data_destroy() to dynamically allocate and free a data item structure of a given type. When a message has its data item "set," allocate one of these to hold the data description, and free it when the last reference to the message is dropped.
