In order to reduce the amount of copies in the rpmsg framework, it is
necessary for clients to take brief ownership of the receive buffer.
Add the capability for clients to notify the rpmsg framework and the
underlying transports when it is going to hold onto a buffer and also
notify when the client is done with the buffer.
In the .rx_cb of the rpmsg drivers, if they wish to use the received
buffer at a later point, they should return RPMSG_DEFER. Otherwise
returning RPMSG_HANDLED (0) will signal the framework that the client
is done with the resources and can continue with cleanup.
The clients should check if their rpmsg endpoint supports the rx_done
operation with the new state variable in the rpmsg_endpoint since not
all endpoints will have the ability to support this operation.
