To improve the predictability of fifo8_pop_buf(), the fifo head is set
to the start of data buffer upon a reset so that the first call to the
function will be able to retrieve all data in the fifo.

The patch adds functions fifo8_push_all() and fifo8_pop_buf() which
can be used respectively to push the content of a memory buffer to the
fifo and to pop multiple bytes obtaining a pointer to the fifo backing
buffer.
In addition, it implements fifo8_num_free() and fifo8_num_used() which
allow to check if a multi-byte operation can be performed.
