Conrad Meyer aaa3852435 buf: Add B_INVALONERR flag to discard data
Setting the B_INVALONERR flag before a synchronous write causes the buf
cache to forcibly invalidate contents if the write fails (BIO_ERROR).

This is intended to be used to allow layers above the buffer cache to make
more informed decisions about when discarding dirty buffers without
successful write is acceptable.

As a proof of concept, use in msdosfs to handle failures to mark the on-disk
'dirty' bit during rw mount or ro->rw update.

Extending this to other filesystems is left as future work.
