camcontrol: add support for Toshiba drive firmware update

Thanks to Toshiba for providing the SCSI spec for their latest
generation drives so I could confirm how they operate.

The firmware download works in a pretty standard way, so this
is a straightforward table addition.

sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.8:
Document that Toshiba drives are supported for fwdownload,
and that it was tested on TOSHIBA MG10SFA22TE 22TB drives.

sbin/camcontrol/fwdownload.c:
Add TOSHIBA to the known SCSI vendors list for fwdownload.

camcontrol: depop command

Implement and document the new depop command. This command manages drive elements
for drives that support it. Storage elements are typically heads. Element status
can be discovered. Elements may be removed or restored. And the status of any
current depop operation can be assessed.

depop -d elm will remove element elm and truncate available capacity.
depop -l will list the current drive elements and their current status.
depop -r elm will try to restore all retired elements and rebuild capacity.

Changing storage elements may reinitialize the drive. This operation will lose
data and may take hours to complete. Use the drive provided timeout for
operations by default.

Make `camcontrol modepage` support block descriptors.

It allows to read and write block descriptors alike to mode page parameters.
It allows to change block size or short-stroke HDDs or overprovision SSDs.
Depenting on -P parameter the change can be either persistent or till reset.
In case of block size change device may need reformat after the setting.
In case of SSD overprovisioning format or sanitize may be needed to really
free the flash.

During implementation appeared that csio_encode_visit() can not handle
integers of more then 4 bytes, that makes 8-byte LBA handling awkward.
I had to split it into two 4-byte halves now.

Make `camcontrol modepage` to use 10 byte commands.

While old devices may not support 10 byte MODE SENSE/MODE SELECT commands,
new ones may not be able to report all mode pages with 6 byte commands.

This patch makes camcontrol by default start with 10 byte commands and
fall back to 6 byte on ILLEGAL REQUEST error, or 6 byte can be forced.

Add Accessible Max Address Configuration support to camcontrol.

AMA replaced HPA in ACS-3 specification. It allows to limit size of the

of its practical use cases is to under-provision SATA SSDs for better
reliability and performance.

While there, fix HPA Security detection/reporting.
