[PATCH 09/11] tty: vt: separate array juggling to juggle_array()

The algorithm used for scrolling is the array juggling. It has
complexity O(N) and space complexity O(1). I.e. quite fast w/o
requirements for temporary storage.

Move the algorithm to a separate function so it is obvious what it is.
It is almost generic (except the array type), so if anyone else wants
array rotation, feel free to make it generic and move it to include/.

And rename all the variables from i, j, k, sz, d, and so on to something
saner.
