Add a Persistent Reservations ioctl to read the current reservation.
This calls the pr_ops->read_reservation() function that was previously
added in commit c787f1baa503 ("block: Add PR callouts for read keys and
reservation") but was only used by the in-kernel SCSI target so far.
The IOC_PR_READ_RESERVATION ioctl is necessary so that userspace
applications that rely on Persistent Reservations ioctls have a way of
inspecting the current state. Cluster managers and validation tests need
this functionality.
