Currently, the restore code is considering the stream will contain at
most one in-flight request per connection. In a follow-up changes, we
will want to transfer multiple in-flight requests.

The function read_state_buffered() is now extended to restore multiple
in-flight request. Complete requests will be queued as delayed
requests, if there a partial request (only the last one can) then it
will used as the current in-flight request.

Note that we want to bypass the quota check for delayed requests as
the new Xenstore may have a lower limit.

Lastly, there is no need to change the specification as there was
no restriction on the number of in-flight requests preserved.

This pattern was added to do_lu_start() already, and it will be needed
for each other function being called via call_delayed().

Maybe it would be better to add conn explicitly to struct
delayed_request (or even better: replace data with conn) and to do the
conn->in saving/setting/restoring in call_delayed() instead?

This was my original approach, but I abandoned it because in the case of do_lu_start() we need to save the original conn->in in the stream (see patch #3 for more details).

If we overwrite conn->in in call_delayed(), then we need a different way to find the original conn->in. I couldn't find a nice way and decided to settle with the duplication.

Ah, okay, understood. Even in case we'd be able to restore conn->in it
would be the same amount of code again, but harder to follow.
