blktrace: support per-partition tracing

Though one can specify '-d /dev/sda1' when using blktrace, it still
traces the whole sda.

To support per-partition tracing, when we start tracing, we initialize
bt->start_lba and bt->end_lba to the start and end sector of that
partition.

Note some actions are per device, thus we don't filter 0-sector events.
