qcacmn: Add qdf_flex_mem pool allocator

It often happens that the WLAN driver needs to allocate some pool of
structures to handle bursty operations. The traditional approach is to
statically allocate the maximum number of structures that we want to be
able to handle concurrently. This has the significant down side of
requiring manual tuning for every hardware combination for optimal
behavior, and wasting large amounts of memory during non-burst periods.

Add a new flexible, segmented memory allocator in QDF to help address
such scenarios. A small static buffer segment is used to service the
vast majority of operations, while additional segments are dynamically
allocated as needed to meet demand. Critically, these additional
segments are freed when not in use to reduce memory consumption. The
result is a self-tuning buffer that combines most of the benefits of
pure dynamic allocation with most of the benefits of pure static
allocation.
