Christian Borntraeger d50ed907dc virtio_blk: implement naming for vda-vdz,vdaa-vdzz,vdaaa-vdzzz

This patch goes on top of the minor number patch. Please let me know if
you want a merged patch:

Currently virtio_blk creates the disk name combinging "vd"  with 'a'++.
This will give strange names after vdz. I have implemented names up to
vdzzz - inspired by the sd.c code. That should be sufficient for now.

There is one driver in the kernel (driver/s390/block/dasd_genhd.c) that
implements names from dasda-dasdzzzz allowing even more disks. Maybe
a janitor can come up with a common implementation usable for all kind
of block device drivers.

I have tested this patch with 100 disks - seems to work.
