Add a single list of devices that need non-ALUA device handlers to the core

While this is a little ugly in terms of architecture it actually

Stop building scsi_dh as a separate module and integrate it fully into the
core SCSI code with explicit callouts at bus scan time. For now the
callouts are placed at the same point as the old bus notifiers were called,
but in the future we will be able to look at ALUA INQUIRY data earlier on.
Note that this also means that the device handler modules need to be loaded
by the time we scan the bus. The next patches will add support for
autoloading device handlers at bus scan time to make sure they are always
loaded if they are enabled in the kernel config.

During testing, it was discovered that when a device tries to attach to the
alua handler while in TPG state of transitioning, the alua_rtpg function will
wait for it to exit the state before allowing it to continue. As a result, if
the 60 second timeout expires, the alua handler will not attach to the device.
To fix this, I have introduced an input argument to alua_rtpg called
wait_for_transition. The idea is that it will wait for the transition to
complete before an activation (because the current TPG state has some bearing
in that case), but during a discovery if it is transitioning, it will not
wait, and will store the state as standby for the time being.
I believe the precedent exists for this from commit
c0d289b3e5 Since if the device reports a state
of transitioning, it can transition to other more valid states, and it has
been established TPGS is supported on the device, if it is attaching.

This progression can lead to un-needed delay in retrying

lead to such large jumps when delays start getting long, but

bit with combination of flags passed by multipath user level tool to
optimize this behaviour. If PREF bit is set then it issues a STPG command,
otherwise it will let implicit transfer take place.
