[PATCH v3] nvmetcli: Support inline_data_size port parameter

[PATCH v3] nvmetcli: Support inline_data_size port parameter

[Steve Wise]

The port parameter attribute param_inline_data_size allows adjusting
the amount of inline data that can be included in a write IO. Setting
it to < 0 (or not setting it at all) allows the transport to choose a
reasonable default, which will be 0 if that transport does not support
inline.  Setting it to 0 disables the transport from using inline_data.
And setting it to > 0 configures that port/transport to use that inline
data size, in bytes, if the transport supports it.

Changes since v2:
- remove 'param' group from Referal class

Changes since v1:
- remove inline_data_size from the UIReferralNode class
- support older kernels w/o the new parameter
