this patch allows to fully use a tape device connected to qemu through
the scsi-generic interface.
Previous patch introduced tape SCSI commands management, this one
improve error case management:
- the SCSI controller command completion must be called with the status
value, not the sense value. In the case of scsi-generic, the SCSI status
is given by the field status of sg_io_hdr_t (the value is left shifted
by one regarding status codes defined in /usr/include/scsi/scsi.h)
- when a read is aborted due to a mark/EOF/EOD/EOM, the len reported to
controller can be 0. LSI controller emulation doesn't know how to manage
this. A workaround found is to call the completion routine with
SCSI_REASON_DONE just after calling it with SCSI_REASON_DATA with len=0.
This patch also manages correctly the block size of the tape device.
This patch has been tested with a real tape device "HP C5683A", linux
guest (debian etch) and tools like "mt", "tar" and "btape".
Windows guest is not better supported than before...

This patch allows to use a "real" SCSI tape with qemu using
"-drive /dev/sgX,if=scsi".
It allows to decode correctly transfer length when the type of the
device is a tape.
Some issues remain when the application reading the tape tries to go
beyond the end of the stream (but they must be corrected at the SCSI
controller level).

According to SCSI documentation, for 6 bytes commands (READ(6),
WRITE(6)), if transfer length is 0 it specifies 256 blocks.
