nvme: add per-queue sysfs directories

This commit adds helpers to create a per-controller queues sysfs directory
and manage per-queue subdirectories (/sys/class/nvme/nvmeX/queues/<qid>/)
populated with transport-provided attribute groups.

[Severity: Medium]
If sysfs_create_groups() fails in nvme_add_queue_info() after
kobject_init_and_add() has already published qinfo->kobj in sysfs, should
the error path call kobject_del(&qinfo->kobj) before kobject_put(&qinfo->kobj),
just like nvme_remove_queue_info() does?

Without kobject_del(), unlinking the directory from sysfs is deferred to
kobject_cleanup(). If CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE is enabled or if another
thread grabbed a reference to qinfo->kobj after it was added to sysfs, the
<qid> directory and its parent reference on ctrl->queues_kobj remain live
after nvme_add_queue_info() returns an error, which can cause a subsequent
retry or reconnect for the same qid to fail with -EEXIST or expose a
dangling qinfo->data pointer.
