[RFC PATCH 4/7] firmware: arm_scmi: Add per message transport data

The virtio transport in this patch series can be simplified by using the
scmi_xfer tx/rx buffers for data exchange with the virtio device, and
for saving the message state. But the virtio transport requires
prepending a transport-specific header. Also, for data exchange using
virtqueues, the tx and rx buffers should not overlap.

The first step to solve the aforementioned issues is to add a
transport-specific data pointer to scmi_xfer.
