Currently `xl.json` saves algorithm information for bit-rot
verification. Since the bit-rot algo's can change in the
future make sure the erasureReadFile doesn't default to
a particular algo. Instead use the checkSumInfo.
* XL/erasure-read: optimize memory allocation during erasure-read by using temporary buffer pool.
With the change the buffer needed during GetObject by erasureReadFile is allocated only once.
* XL: Refactor xl.GetObject and erasureReadFile. erasureReadFile() responsible for just erasure coding, it takes ordered disks and checkSum slice.
* move getOrderedPartsMetadata and getOrderedDisks to xl-v1-utils.go
* Review fixes.
* XL: Refactor of xl.PutObjectPart and erasureCreateFile.
* GetCheckSum and AddCheckSum methods for xlMetaV1
* Simple unit test case for erasureCreateFile()
This change is needed to make reading from objects future proof
in-terms of handling online disks. Our current counter is not
based on affirmative knowledge and relies on arithmetic sequence
which can lead to bugs.
Using modTime simplifies the understanding of `xl.json` and future
tooling / debugging of the format.
Change brings in a new signVerifyReader which provides a io.Reader
compatible reader, additionally implements Verify() function.
Verify() function validates the signature present in the incoming
request. This approach is choosen to avoid complexities involved
in using io.Pipe().
Thanks to Krishna for his inputs on this.

The object cache implementation is XL cache, which defaults
to 8GB worth of read cache. Currently GetObject() transparently
writes to this cache upon first client read and then subsequently
serves reads from the same cache.
Currently expiration is not implemented.
This is needed so that we only write data which was requested
for, using a limit reader avoids spurious reads on the incoming
client data. Additionally using limit reader provides server
safety from rogue clients sending copious amounts of data (for
example a denial of service attack).
This patch also caters for size == -1 when content encoding from
a client is set as chunked, we happily read till io.EOF
* Renaming a part from tmp namespace needs to be handled different from renaming of an object
* Made argument passing in xl.rename and xl.undoRename explicit
