SEGV investigations with -S multi-stream flags

XRootD server v5.5.4 seems to support multiple streams well with the Ceph plugin. Testing with 1, 2, 4, 8 and 15 streams hasn’t produced the SEGV or any other problems (so far). Unfortunately, there isn’t significant scaling of transfer rates using multiple streams, as the server processes the streams sequentially and synchronously (not concurrently or asynchronously). There’s an Andygram about this at https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/issues/1938#issuecomment-1453285097

https://github.com/stfc/xrootd-ceph/pull/40

Identified a few failing transfers due to paged writes and case of misalignment at end of the buffer. Sanity checking caught the issue and failure the transfer. Tests with PR code passing on dev machine.
