The copyFromFile buffer function will always attempt to fill the full
temporary buffer when copying from the file. This is an issue because
the file might contain data for other buffers as well.

To resolve this, the function will now take the remaining size to be
read into account and not read more than that from the file.

For direct drive, buffers must be placed at the expected offsets when
they are allocated. To be able to support this, buffers are now
allocated in batches and they share the same backing memory.

This has changed the UAPI in a way that is not backward compatible and
thus the major version has been bumped. Due to the buffer offset
requirement, buffers no longer support being memory mapped and instead
the data needs to be accessed using the read/write calls.

Driver library and tests have been updated accordingly to the new
changes.
