[SCSI] tcm_loop: Add multi-fabric Linux/SCSI LLD fabric module

This patch adds the TCM_Loop Linux/SCSI LLD fabric module for
accessing TCM device backstores as locally accessable SCSI LUNs in
virtual SAS, FC, and iSCSI Target ports using the generic fabric
TransportID and Target Port WWN naming handlers from TCM's
target_core_fabric_lib.c The TCM_Loop module uses the generic fabric
configfs infratructure provided by target_core_fabric_configfs.c and
adds a module dependent attribute for the creation/release of the
virtual I_T Nexus connected the TCM_Loop Target and Initiator Ports.

TCM_Loop can also be used with scsi-generic and BSG drivers so that
STGT userspace fabric modules, QEMU-KVM and other hypervisor SCSI
passthrough support can access TCM device backstore and control CDB
emulation.

[SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:

High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.

Advanced SCSI feature set:

* Persistent Reservations (PRs)
* Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
* Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
* Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
* Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
* Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)

Multiprotocol target plugins

Storage media independence:

* Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
* No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
* Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.

Standards compliance:

* Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
* Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA

Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.
