[SCSI] scsi_dh_alua: Attach to UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS devices

The SCSI ALUA handler currently fails to attach to devices
reporting an UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS. But given that an
UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS can transition to other states
like ACTIVE/OPTIMIZED, ACTIVE/NON-OPTIMIZED, etc. as per
SPC4, this ALUA handler behavior should be rectified so
as to attach to devices which also report an
UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS.
