util/defer-call: move defer_call() to util/

The networking subsystem may wish to use defer_call(), so move the code
to util/ where it can be reused.

As a reminder of what defer_call() does:

This API defers a function call within a defer_call_begin()/defer_call_end()
section, allowing multiple calls to batch up. This is a performance
optimization that is used in the block layer to submit several I/O requests
at once instead of individually:

  defer_call_begin(); <-- start of section
  ...
  defer_call(my_func, my_obj); <-- deferred my_func(my_obj) call
  defer_call(my_func, my_obj); <-- another
  defer_call(my_func, my_obj); <-- another
  ...
  defer_call_end(); <-- end of section, my_func(my_obj) is called once
