block: Allow zero value of max_zone_append_sectors queue limit

In preparation for adding a generic zone append emulation using zone
write plugging, allow device drivers supporting zoned block device to
set a the max_zone_append_sectors queue limit of a device to 0 to
indicate the lack of native support for zone append operations and that
the block layer should emulate these operations using regular write
operations.

blk_queue_max_zone_append_sectors() is modified to allow passing 0 as
the max_zone_append_sectors argument. The function
queue_max_zone_append_sectors() is also modified to ensure that the
minimum of the max_hw_sectors and chunk_sectors limit is used whenever
the max_zone_append_sectors limit is 0. This minimum is consistent with
the value set for the max_zone_append_sectors limit by the function
blk_validate_zoned_limits() when limits for a queue are validated.

The helper functions queue_emulates_zone_append() and
bdev_emulates_zone_append() are added to test if a queue (or block
device) emulates zone append operations.

In order for blk_revalidate_disk_zones() to accept zoned block devices
relying on zone append emulation, the direct check to the
max_zone_append_sectors queue limit of the disk is replaced by a check
using the value returned by queue_max_zone_append_sectors(). Similarly,
queue_zone_append_max_show() is modified to use the same accessor so
that the sysfs attribute advertizes the non-zero limit that will be
used, regardless if it is for native or emulated commands.

For stacking drivers, a top device should not need to care if the
underlying devices have native or emulated zone append operations.
blk_stack_limits() is thus modified to set the top device
max_zone_append_sectors limit using the new accessor
queue_limits_max_zone_append_sectors(). queue_max_zone_append_sectors()
is modified to use this function as well. Stacking drivers that require
zone append emulation, e.g. dm-crypt, can still request this feature by
calling blk_queue_max_zone_append_sectors() with a 0 limit.
