Implement readahead buffering for non-raw files.  This drastically improves
the efficiency of byte-by-byte read operations on filesystems not already
supported by the block cache (especially NFS).

This should be a welcome change for users booting via PXE, as the loader
now reads its startup files almost instantly, instead of taking tens of
seconds.
