[PATCH 4/4] rbd: allocate image object names with a slab allocator

[Alex Elder <elder@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The names of objects used for image object requests are always fixed
size.  So create a slab cache to manage them.  Define a new function
rbd_segment_name_free() to match rbd_segment_name() (which is what
supplies the dynamically-allocated name buffer).

This is part of:
