Currently ublk only allows the size of the ublkb block device to be
set via UBLK_CMD_SET_PARAMS before UBLK_CMD_START_DEV is triggered.
This does not provide support for extendable user-space block devices
without having to stop and restart the underlying ublkb block device
causing IO interruption.
This patch adds a new ublk command UBLK_U_CMD_UPDATE_SIZE to allow the
ublk block device to be resized on-the-fly.
Feature flag UBLK_F_UPDATE_SIZE is also added to indicate support for
this command.
