md: improve usefulness and accuracy of sysfs file md/sync_completed.

The sync_completed file reports how much of a resync (or recovery or
reshape) has been completed.
However due to the possibility of out-of-order completion of writes,
it is not certain to be accurate.

We have an internal value - mddev->curr_resync_completed - which is an
accurate value (though it might not always be quite so uptodate).

So:
 - make curr_resync_completed be uptodate a little more often,
   particularly when raid5 reshape updates status in the metadata
 - report curr_resync_completed in the sysfs file
 - allow poll/select to report all updates to md/sync_completed.

This makes sync_completed completed usable by any external metadata
handler that wants to record this status information in its metadata.
