zsmalloc: introduce SG-list based object read API

Currently, zsmalloc performs address linearization on read (which
sometimes requires memcpy() to a local buffer).  Not all zsmalloc users
need a linear address.  For example, Crypto API supports SG-list,
performing linearization under the hood, if needed.  In addition, some
compressors can have native SG-list support, completely avoiding the
linearization step.

Provide an SG-list based zsmalloc read API:
- zs_obj_read_sg_begin()
- zs_obj_read_sg_end()

This API allows callers to obtain an SG representation of the object (one
entry for objects that are contained in a single page and two entries for
spanning objects), avoiding the need for a bounce buffer and memcpy.
