block: bio: pass bvec table to bio_init()
Some drivers often use external bvec table, so introduce
this helper for this case. It is always safe to access the
bio->bi_io_vec in this way for this case.
After converting to this usage, it will becomes a bit easier
to evaluate the remaining direct access to bio->bi_io_vec,
so it can help to prepare for the following multipage bvec
support.
