knfsd: Support adding transports by writing portlist file

Update the write handler for the portlist file to allow creating new
listening endpoints on a transport. The general form of the string is:

<transport_name><space><port number>

For example:

echo "tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist

This is intended to support the creation of a listening endpoint for
RDMA transports without adding #ifdef code to the nfssvc.c file.

Transports can also be removed as follows:

'-'<transport_name><space><port number>

For example:

echo "-tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist

Attempting to add a listener with an invalid transport string results
in EPROTONOSUPPORT and a perror string of "Protocol not supported".

Attempting to remove an non-existent listener (.e.g. bad proto or port)
results in ENOTCONN and a perror string of
"Transport endpoint is not connected"
