[for-4.16 PATCH 1/5] block: establish request failover callback infrastructure

If bio sets 'bi_failover_rq' callback it'll get transfered to the
appropriate request's 'failover_rq' using blk_init_request_from_bio().

This callback is expected to use the blk_steal_bios() interface to
transfer a request's bios back to a bio-based request_queue.

This will be used by both NVMe multipath and DM multipath.  Without it
DM multipath cannot get access to NVMe-specific error handling that NVMe
core provides in nvme_complete_rq().
