Rework CTL frontend & backend options to use nv(3), allow creating multiple
ioctl frontend ports.

This revision introduces two changes to CTL:
- Changes the way options are passed to CTL_LUN_REQ and CTL_PORT_REQ ioctls.
  Removes ctl_be_arg structure and associated logic and replaces it with
  nv(3)-based logic for passing in and out arguments.
- Allows creating multiple ioctl frontend ports using either ctladm(8) or
  ctld(8).
  New frontend ports are represented by /dev/cam/ctl<pp>.<vp> nodes, eg /dev/cam/ctl5.3.
  Those device nodes respond only to CTL_IO ioctl.

New command-line options for ctladm:
# creates new ioctl frontend port with using free pp and vp=0
ctladm port -c
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=10 and vp=0
ctladm port -c -O pp=10
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=11 and vp=12
ctladm port -c -O pp=11 -O vp=12
# removes port with number 4 (it's a "targ_port" number, not pp number)
ctladm port -r -p 4

New syntax for ctl.conf:
target ... {
    port ioctl/<pp>
    ...
}

target ... {
    port ioctl/<pp>/<vp>
    ...
