Jim Harris 4fc7e66614 bdev: add vbdev claim/release semantics
vbdev modules still open/close bdevs as normal, but
should open bdevs read only when tasting (i.e. reading
the GPT to see if there are SPDK partitions).  When
a vbdev module is ready to claim the bdev for purposes
of creating virtual bdevs on top of it, it calls
spdk_vbdev_module_claim_bdev().  It can pass its
open descriptor as well to have it promoted to
write access (required for future vbdev modules like
logical volumes).

Note: error vbdev was changed to copy the base bdev
parameters one-by-one instead of a blind memcpy - we
do not want to copy the base bdev's vbdev_claim_module
into the new bdev!
