nbd: add set flags ioctl
Add a set-flags ioctl, allowing various option flags to be set on an nbd device. This allows the nbd-client to set the device flags (to enable read-only mode, or enable discard support, etc.). Flags are typically specified by the nbd-server. During the negotiation phase of the nbd connection, the server sends its flags to the client. The client then uses NBD_SET_FLAGS to inform the kernel of the options. Also included is a one-line fix to debug output for the set-timeout ioctl.
