kdbus: add name registry implementation

This patch adds the name registry implementation.

Each bus instantiates a name registry to resolve well-known names
into unique connection IDs for message delivery. The registry will
be queried when a message is sent with kdbus_msg.dst_id set to
KDBUS_DST_ID_NAME, or when a registry dump is requested.

It's important to have this registry implemented in the kernel to
implement lookups and take-overs in a race-free way.
