lockd: Use xdrgen XDR functions for the NLMv4 TEST_MSG procedure

The TEST_MSG procedure is part of NLM's asynchronous lock request
flow, where clients send TEST_MSG to check lock availability
without blocking. This patch continues the xdrgen migration by
converting TEST_MSG to use generated XDR functions.

This patch converts the TEST_MSG procedure to use xdrgen
functions nlm4_svc_decode_nlm4_testargs and
nlm4_svc_encode_void generated from the NLM version 4 protocol
specification. The procedure handler uses xdrgen types through
the nlm4_testargs_wrapper structure that bridges between
generated code and the legacy nlm_lock representation.

The pc_argzero field is set to zero because xdrgen decoders
reliably initialize all arguments in the argp->xdrgen field,
making the early defensive memset unnecessary. Remaining argp
fields are cleared as needed.

The NLM async callback mechanism uses client-side functions
which continue to take legacy results like struct nlm_res,
preventing TEST and TEST_MSG from sharing code for now.
