target: Add netlink command reply supported option for each device
Currently netlink command reply support option (TCMU_ATTR_SUPP_KERN_CMD_REPLY) can be enabled only on module scope. Because of that, once an application enables the netlink command reply support, all applications using target_core_user.ko would be expected to support the netlink reply. To make matters worse, users will not be able to add a device via configfs manually. To fix these issues, this patch adds an option to make netlink command reply disabled on each device through configfs. Original TCMU_ATTR_SUPP_KERN_CMD_REPLY is still enabled on module scope to keep backward-compatibility and used by default, however once users set nl_reply_supported=<NAGATIVE_VALUE> via configfs for a particular device, the device disables the netlink command reply support.
