dm bufio: implement discard
Add functions dm_bufio_issue_discard and dm_bufio_discard_buffers.
dm_bufio_issue_discard sends discard request to the underlying device.
dm_bufio_discard_buffers frees buffers in the range and then calls
dm_bufio_issue_discard.
Also, factor out block_to_sector for reuse in dm_bufio_issue_discard.
