[sheepdog] [PATCH v8 4/7] lib: add wrappers do_writev2() and writev2() for typical usage of writev()

[Hitoshi Mitake]

This patch adds 2 new wrappers: do_write2v() and writev2() for
enshorting typical usage of writev().

Typical usage of writev() is sending an array of struct iovec with 2
elements, one for a header and another for a message body.
With do_writev2(), declaring the array in caller side can be removed.

writev2() is a wrapper for do_writev2(). Typical headers have fixed
length, so writev2() obtains their length with sizeof() (so writev2()
is defined as a macro function).
