virtio_ring: unify direct/indirect code paths.

virtqueue_add() populates the virtqueue descriptor table from the sgs
given.  If it uses an indirect descriptor table, then it puts a single
descriptor in the descriptor table pointing to the kmalloc'ed indirect
table where the sg is populated.

Previously vring_add_indirect() did the allocation and the simple
linear layout.  We replace that with alloc_indirect() which allocates
the indirect table then chains it like the normal descriptor table so
we can reuse the core logic.

This slows down pktgen by less than 1/2 a percent (which uses direct
descriptors), as well as vring_bench, but it's far neater.

vring_bench before:
	1061485790-1104800648(1.08254e+09+/-6.6e+06)ns
vring_bench after:
	1125610268-1183528965(1.14172e+09+/-8e+06)ns

pktgen before:

Now, if we make force indirect descriptors by turning off any_header_sg
in virtio_net.c:
