USB: serial: remove multi-urb write from generic driver

Remove multi-urb write from the generic driver and simplify the
prepare_write_buffer prototype:

int (*prepare_write_buffer)(struct usb_serial_port *port,
void *dest, size_t size);

The default implementation simply fills dest with data from port write
fifo but drivers can override it if they need to process the outgoing
data (e.g. add headers).

Turn ftdi_sio into a generic fifo-based driver, which lowers CPU usage
significantly for small writes while retaining maximum throughput.
