[PATCH v4] nvme: refresh multipath head zoned limits from path limits

queue_limits_stack_bdev() updates the multipath head limits from the
path queue, but it does not propagate max_open_zones or
max_active_zones. As a result, a zoned multipath namespace head can
keep stale 0/0 values even after a ready path reports finite zoned
resource limits.
When refreshing the head limits in nvme_update_ns_info(), stack the
zoned resource limits directly after stacking the path queue limits.
Use min_not_zero() so the block layer's 0 value keeps its "no limit"
meaning while finite limits are combined conservatively.
This avoids advertising "no limit" on the multipath head while keeping
the zoned-limit handling local to the NVMe multipath update path.

Changes since v3:
- Factor the zoned-limit update into nvme_stack_zone_resources(), as
suggested in review.
Testing:
- blktests: nvme/005, nvme/057, nvme/058
- blktests: zbd/011, zbd/012, zbd/013, block/004
- blktests on /dev/nvme0n1: zbd/001, zbd/002, zbd/003, zbd/004,
zbd/005, zbd/006
