Merge branch 'netconsole-allow-userdata-buffer-to-grow-dynamically'

Gustavo Luiz Duarte says:

====================
netconsole: Allow userdata buffer to grow dynamically

The current netconsole implementation allocates a static buffer for
extradata (userdata + sysdata) with a fixed size of
MAX_EXTRADATA_ENTRY_LEN * MAX_EXTRADATA_ITEMS bytes for every target,
regardless of whether userspace actually uses this feature. This forces
us to keep MAX_EXTRADATA_ITEMS small (16), which is restrictive for
users who need to attach more metadata to their log messages.

This patch series enables dynamic allocation of the userdata buffer,
allowing it to grow on-demand based on actual usage. The series:

1. Refactors send_fragmented_body() to simplify handling of separated
userdata and sysdata (patch 1/4)
2. Splits userdata and sysdata into separate buffers (patch 2/4)
3. Implements dynamic allocation for the userdata buffer (patch 3/4)
4. Increases MAX_USERDATA_ITEMS from 16 to 256 now that we can do so
without memory waste (patch 4/4)

Benefits:
- No memory waste when userdata is not used
- Targets that use userdata only consume what they need
- Users can attach significantly more metadata without impacting systems
that don't use this feature
