dm raid: support raid0 with missing metadata devices
The raid0 MD personality does not start a raid0 array with any of its data devices missing. dm-raid was removing data/metadata device pairs unconditionally if it failed to read a superblock off the respective metadata device of such pair, resulting in failure to start arrays with the raid0 personality. Avoid removing any data/metadata device pairs in case of raid0 (e.g. lvm2 segment type 'raid0_meta') thus allowing MD to start the array. Also, avoid region size validation for raid0.
