nvmet: add support for the Write Zeroes command

Add support for handling write zeroes command on target.
Call into __blkdev_issue_zeroout, which the block layer expands into the
best suitable variant of zeroing the LBAs. Allow write zeroes operation
to deallocate the LBAs when calling __blkdev_issue_zeroout.
