uaccess: add copy_struct_{from,to}_bounce_buffer() helpers

These are similar to copy_struct_{from,to}_user() but operate
on kernel buffers instead of user buffers.

They can be used when there is a temporary bounce buffer used,
e.g. in msg_control or similar places.

It allows us to have the same logic to handle old vs. current
and current vs. new structures in the same compatible way.

copy_struct_from_sockptr() will also be able to
use copy_struct_from_bounce_buffer() for the kernel
case as follow us patch.

I'll use this in my IPPROTO_SMBDIRECT work,
but maybe it will also be useful for others...
IPPROTO_QUIC will likely also use it.
