[PATCH v1] nvme-cli: user-defined hostnqn option for discover

The nvme-cli will always use the default hostnqn
in /dev/nvme-fabrics  for the discovery query, even though
both the NVMe Target and NVMe Host rdma implementations allow
user-defined hostnqn naming.

For example, this is the current, somewhat broken behavior if you
used your own hostnqn provision naming on the NVMe kernel target:

nvme discover /dev/nvme-fabrics  -t rdma --traddr=192.168.1.3 --trsvcid=4420

in dmesg:
[591910.025779] nvme nvme0: Connect Invalid Data Parameter, hostnqn "nqn.2014-08.org.nvmexpress:NVMf:uuid:a2d7752c-a31b-477a-a003-31a5e1c424a9"

New, fixed behavior introduced by this patch:

[root at fedora23-fabrics-host1 nvme-cli]# nvme discover  -t rdma --traddr=192.168.1.3 --trsvcid=4420 --hostnqn=host1-rogue-nqn
