buddy: Add a simple generic buddy allocator

It operates on bits representing whatever objects the caller wants
it to represent, it's not per-se a memory allocator (it's meant to
be used among others by XIVE for VP allocations). As such it cannot
keep linked lists of free objects, so don't expect stellar perfs.
