block: add ioprio_check_cap function
Aio per command iopriority support introduces a second interface between userland and the kernel capable of passing iopriority. The aio interface also needs the ability to verify that the submitting context has sufficient privileges to submit IOPRIO_RT commands. This patch creates the ioprio_check_cap function to be used by the ioprio_set system call and also by the aio interface.
