block: allow disk to have extended device number

Browse Source 
Now that disk and partition handlings are mostly unified, it's easy to
allow disk to have extended device number.  This patch makes
add_disk() use extended device number if disk->minors is zero.  Both
sd and ide-disk are updated to use this.

* sd_format_disk_name() is implemented which can generically determine
  the drive name.  This removes disk number restriction stemming from
  limited device names.

* If sd index goes over SD_MAX_DISKS (which can be increased now BTW),
  sd simply doesn't initialize minors letting block layer choose
  extended device number.

* If CONFIG_DEBUG_EXT_DEVT is set, both sd and ide-disk always set
  minors to 0 and use extended device numbers.
