SUNRPC: Provide functions for managing universal addresses

Introduce a set of functions in the kernel's RPC implementation for
converting between a socket address and either a standard
presentation address string or an RPC universal address.

The universal address functions will be used to encode and decode
RPCB_FOO and NFSv4 SETCLIENTID arguments.  The other functions are
part of a previous promise to deliver shared functions that can be
used by upper-layer protocols to display and manipulate IP
addresses.

The kernel's current address printf formatters were designed
specifically for kernel to user-space APIs that require a particular
string format for socket addresses, thus are somewhat limited for the
purposes of sunrpc.ko.  The formatter for IPv6 addresses, %pI6, does
not support short-handing or scope IDs.  Also, these printf formatters
are unique per address family, so a separate formatter string is
required for printing AF_INET and AF_INET6 addresses.
