dm: implement REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for bio-based dm

Browse Source 
This patch converts bio-based dm to support REQ_FLUSH/FUA instead of
now deprecated REQ_HARDBARRIER.

* -EOPNOTSUPP handling logic dropped.

* Preflush is handled as before but postflush is dropped and replaced
  with passing down REQ_FUA to member request_queues.  This replaces
  one array wide cache flush w/ member specific FUA writes.

* __split_and_process_bio() now calls __clone_and_map_flush() directly
  for flushes and guarantees all FLUSH bio's going to targets are zero
`  length.

* It's now guaranteed that all FLUSH bio's which are passed onto dm
  targets are zero length.  bio_empty_barrier() tests are replaced
  with REQ_FLUSH tests.

* Empty WRITE_BARRIERs are replaced with WRITE_FLUSHes.

* Dropped unlikely() around REQ_FLUSH tests.  Flushes are not unlikely
  enough to be marked with unlikely().

* Block layer now filters out REQ_FLUSH/FUA bio's if the request_queue
  doesn't support cache flushing.  Advertise REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA
  capability.

* Request based dm isn't converted yet.  dm_init_request_based_queue()
  resets flush support to 0 for now.  To avoid disturbing request
  based dm code, dm->flush_error is added for bio based dm while
  requested based dm continues to use dm->barrier_error.

Lightly tested linear, stripe, raid1, snap and crypt targets.  Please
proceed with caution as I'm not familiar with the code base.
