block: sed-opal: Add ioctl to return device status
Provide a mechanism to retrieve basic status information about the device, including the "supported" flag indicating whether SED-OPAL is supported. The information returned is from the various feature descriptors received during the discovery0 step, and so this ioctl does nothing more than perform the discovery0 step and then save the information received. See "struct opal_status" and OPAL_FL_* bits for the status information currently returned. This is necessary to be able to check whether a device is OPAL enabled, set up, locked or unlocked from userspace programs like systemd-cryptsetup and libcryptsetup. Right now we just have to assume the user 'knows' or blindly attempt setup/lock/unlock operations.
