block: Add a disk flag to block integrity profile
So far we have relied on the app tag size to determine whether a disk has been formatted with T10 protection information or not. However, not all target devices provide application tag storage. Add a flag to the block integrity profile that indicates whether the disk has been formatted with protection information. Signed-off-by: Martin K.
