Subject: reducing buffer allocations

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/5534

does two things: (1) combine the buffer::raw reference count and buffer into a single allocation (ala make_shared), and (2) convert buffer::list into an intrusive_list, while embedding N (=3) buffer::ptr's in the buffer::raw so that most buffers require only 1 allocation (provided they aren't on more than N lists).

This needs a rebase, and some benchmarking.  But before I pull it up, is this the right direction?  I saw little benefit from (2) after doing (1), but I was doing a really simple microbenchmark.  Do we want both, or just 1, or is there an alternative we should consider?
