util: add transactions.c

Add simple transaction API to use in further update of block graph
operations.

Supposed usage is:

- "prepare" is main function of the action and it should make the main
  effect of the action to be visible for the following actions, keeping
  possibility of roll-back, saving necessary things in action state,
  which is prepended to the action list (to do that, prepare func
  should call tran_add()). So, driver struct doesn't include "prepare"
  field, as it is supposed to be called directly.

- commit/rollback is supposed to be called for the list of action
  states, to commit/rollback all the actions in reverse order

- When possible "commit" should not make visible effect for other
  actions, which make possible transparent logical interaction between
  actions.
