nvme: send a rediscover uevent when a persistent discovery controller reconnects
When a discovery controller is disconnected, no AENs will arrive to notify the host about discovery log change events. In order to solve this, send a uevent notification when a persistent discovery controller reconnects. We add a new ctrl flag NVME_CTRL_STARTED_ONCE that will be set on the first start, and consecutive calls will find it set, and send the event to userspace if the controller is a discovery controller. Upon the event reception, userspace will re-read the discovery log page and will act upon changes as it sees fit.
