erofs: rename per-CPU buffers to global buffer pool and make it configurable

Browse source 
It will cost more time if compressed buffers are allocated on demand for
low-latency algorithms (like lz4) so EROFS uses per-CPU buffers to keep
compressed data if in-place decompression is unfulfilled.  While it is kind
of wasteful of memory for a device with hundreds of CPUs, and only a small
number of CPUs concurrently decompress most of the time.

This patch renames it as 'global buffer pool' and makes it configurable.
This allows two or more CPUs to share a common buffer to reduce memory
occupation.
