Decouple the send and receive limits on the amount of data in a single
iSCSI PDU. MaxRecvDataSegmentLength is declarative, not negotiated, and
is direction-specific so there is no reason for both ends to limit
themselves to the same min(initiator, target) value in both directions.
Allow iSCSI drivers to report their send, receive, first burst, and max
burst limits explicitly instead of using hardcoded values or trying to
derive all of them from the receive limit (which was the only limit
reported by the drivers prior to this change).
Display the send and receive limits separately in the userspace iSCSI
utilities.

in ICL interface.
- the ordering of parameters to icl_conn_task_setup is different, so that
the "cookie" is last.
- the icl_conn_connected() method is gone, replaced by much simpler mechanism.
I'd rather keep the ICL interface as small as possible.
- I don't really like the s/offload/driver/g. The "tcp" is not a driver;
"iser" is not really a driver either. I'd prefer to leave it as it is.
- the check for ic_session_type_discovery() in iser_conn_handoff() is gone,
as handoff cannot happen for discovery sessions.
- ic_session_login_phase() and ic_session_type_discovery() are gone. If you
had your handoff method called - you're no longer in either of those.
- the way maxtags is passed is different; now it's simply ic->ic_maxtags.
It's cleaner, and the old way would cause weird things to happen if
fail_on_disconnection=1 and the user changed the maxtags sysctl before
reconnecting (basically the CAM idea of maxtags would be different from
iSER one).
- icl_hba_misc() is gone; declare support for PIM_UNMAPPED by setting
ic->ic_unmapped flag.
- the way we find the "iser" ICL module is rewritten - we have a flag
for icl_register() that says if the module is iSER-capable or not.
- icl_conn_release() is gone; iser_conn_release() is called from
iser_conn_free() (no functional change in this case) and at the beginning
of icl_conn_connect(), to handle reconnection.

This code comes from https://github.com/sagigrimberg/iser-freebsd, branch
iser-rebase-11-current-r291993. It's not connected to the build just yet;
it still needs some tweaks to adapt to my changes to iSCSI infrastructure.
Big thanks to Mellanox for their support for FreeBSD!
