rpc: Maintain separate xlator pointer in 'rpcsvc_state'

The structure 'rpcsvc_state', which maintains rpc server
state had no separate pointer to track the translator.
It was using the mydata pointer itself. So callers were
forced to send xlator pointer as mydata which is opaque
(void pointer) by function prototype.

'rpcsvc_register_init' is setting svc->mydata with xlator
pointer. 'rpcsvc_register_notify' is overwriting svc->mydata
with mydata pointer. And rpc interprets svc->mydata as
xlator pointer internally. If someone passes non xlator
structure pointer to rpcsvc_register_notify as libgfchangelog
currently does, it might corrupt mydata. So interpreting opaque
mydata as xlator pointer is incorrect as it is caller's choice
to send mydata as any type of data to 'rpcsvc_register_notify'.

Maintaining two different pointers in 'rpcsvc_state' for xlator
and mydata solves the issue.
