scsi: core: Introduce a new list for SCSI proc directory entries



Instead of using scsi_host_template members to track the SCSI proc
directory entries, track these entries in a list. This changes the time
needed for looking up the proc dir pointer from O(1) into O(n). This is
considered acceptable since the number of SCSI host adapter types per host
is usually small (less than ten).

This change has been tested by attaching two USB storage devices to a qemu
host:

$ grep -aH . /proc/scsi/usb-storage/*
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:   Host scsi7: usb-storage
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:       Vendor: QEMU
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:      Product: QEMU USB HARDDRIVE
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:Serial Number: 1-0000:00:02.1:00.0-6
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:     Protocol: Transparent SCSI
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:    Transport: Bulk
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:       Quirks: SANE_SENSE
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:   Host scsi8: usb-storage
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:       Vendor: QEMU
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:      Product: QEMU USB HARDDRIVE
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:Serial Number: 1-0000:00:02.1:00.0-7
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:     Protocol: Transparent SCSI
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:    Transport: Bulk
/proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:       Quirks: SANE_SENSE

This commit prepares for constifying most SCSI host templates.
