util/iov: add iov_discard_undo()
The iov_discard_front/back() operations are useful for parsing iovecs
but they modify the array elements. If the original array is needed
after parsing finishes there is currently no way to restore it.
Although g_memdup() can be used before performing destructive
iov_discard_front/back() operations, this is inefficient.
Introduce iov_discard_undo() to restore the array to the state prior to
an iov_discard_front/back() operation.
