Add large bucket support for erasure coded backend (#5160)

This PR implements an object layer which
combines input erasure sets of XL layers
into a unified namespace.

This object layer extends the existing
erasure coded implementation, it is assumed
in this design that providing > 16 disks is
a static configuration as well i.e if you started
the setup with 32 disks with 4 sets 8 disks per
pack then you would need to provide 4 sets always.

Some design details and restrictions:

- Objects are distributed using consistent ordering
  to a unique erasure coded layer.
- Each pack has its own dsync so locks are synchronized
  properly at pack (erasure layer).
- Each pack still has a maximum of 16 disks
  requirement, you can start with multiple
  such sets statically.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
  changed, there is no elastic expansion allowed.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
  changed, there is no elastic removal allowed.
- ListObjects() across sets can be noticeably
  slower since List happens on all servers,
  and is merged at this sets layer.
