[PATCH v3 2/3] nvme_fc: add uevent for auto-connect

To support auto-connecting to FC-NVME devices upon their dynamic
appearance, add a uevent that can kick off connection scripts.
uevent is posted against the fc_udev device.

patch set tested with the following rule to kick an nvme-cli connect-all
for the FC initiator and FC target ports. This is just an example for
testing and not intended for real life use.

ACTION=="change", SUBSYSTEM=="fc", ENV{FC_EVENT}=="nvmediscovery", \
        ENV{NVMEFC_HOST_TRADDR}=="*", ENV{NVMEFC_TRADDR}=="*", \
	RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/nvme connect-all --transport=fc --host-traddr=$env{NVMEFC_HOST_TRADDR} --traddr=$env{NVMEFC_TRADDR} >> /tmp/nvme_fc.log'"

I will post proposed udev/systemd scripts for possible kernel support.

v2: changed syntax of event to specify a fc event type with FC_EVENT
  variable, and independent variables for host_traddr and traddr.
  Added nvme_fc_rescan_remoteport().
v3:
  Stayed with snprintf over kasprintf. The xxaddr fields, per FC-NVME
    spec, are fixed length, so hardcoding their length is acceptable.
    Also, if allocation was to fail, it potentially causes a
    critical loss in connectivity as the event wouldn't be posted.
    Better to allocate on the stack and ensure the event can be
    posted. Added define and comments on string length.
  Split duplicate connection check into separate patch.
