VFS: rename do_splice_to/from to vfs_splice_* and export symbols

A stackable file system which uses vm_ops->fault, and does not implement
address_space_operations, cannot use generic_file_splice_read/write, but has
to implement ->splice_read/write itself.  These two helper functions are
very useful to such a module.
