block: Introduce blk_set_stacking_limits function
Stacking driver queue limits are typically bounded exclusively by the capabilities of the low level devices, not by the stacking driver itself. This patch introduces blk_set_stacking_limits() which has more liberal metrics than the default queue limits function. This allows us to inherit topology parameters from bottom devices without manually tweaking the default limits in each driver prior to calling the stacking function. Since there is now a clear distinction between stacking and low-level devices, blk_set_default_limits() has been modified to carry the more conservative values that we used to manually set in blk_queue_make_request().
