[MINOR] add a new back-reference type : struct bref

Browse Source 
This type will be used to maintain back-references to items which
are subject to move between accesses. Typical usage includes session
removal during a listing.

/* a back-ref is a pointer to a target list entry. It is used to detect when an
* element being deleted is currently being tracked by another user. The best
* example is a user dumping the session table. The table does not fit in the
* output buffer so we have to set a mark on a session and go on later. But if
* that marked session gets deleted, we don't want the user's pointer to go in
* the wild. So we can simply link this user's request to the list of this
* session's users, and put a pointer to the list element in ref, that will be
* used as the mark for next iteration.
