[LU-19276] add llapi_changelog_register() and llapi_changelog_deregister() functions

Description

It would be useful to separate out the low-level Changelog user register/deregister functionality from the command-line parsing in jt_changelog_register() and jt_changelog_deregister() into llapi_changelog_register() and llapi_changelog_deregister() functions, so that this is available via C API to applications, and other languages via wrappers. These should be added to the liblustreapi_chlg.c file.

Man pages describing these new functions should also be added.
