lightnvm: allow to force mm initialization
System block allows the device to initialize with its configured media manager. The system blocks is written to disk, and read again when media manager is determined. For this to work, the backend must store the data. Device drivers, such as null_blk, does not have any backend storage. This patch allows the media manager to be initialized without a storage backend. It also fix incorrect configuration of capabilities in null_blk, as it does not support get/set bad block interface.
