fs/kernel_file_read: Add "offset" arg for partial reads

To perform partial reads, callers of kernel_read_file*() must have a
non-NULL file_size argument and a preallocated buffer. The new "offset"
argument can then be used to seek to specific locations in the file to
fill the buffer to, at most, "buf_size" per call.

Where possible, the LSM hooks can report whether a full file has been
read or not so that the contents can be reasoned about.
