Add a new class for dm-delay that delays flush requests. Previously,
flushes were delayed as writes, but it caused problems if the user
needed to create a device with one or a few slow sectors for the purpose
of testing - all flushes would be forwarded to this device and delayed,
and that skews the test results. Fix this by allowing to select 0 delay
for flushes.

According to `man blockdev':
--getsize
Print device size (32-bit!) in sectors.
Deprecated in favor of the --getsz option.
...
--getsz
Get size in 512-byte sectors.
Hence, occurrences of `--getsize' should be replaced with `--getsz',
which this commit has achieved as follows:
$ cd "$repo"
$ git grep -l -e --getsz

Only delay params are mentioned in delay.txt.
Mention offsets just like documents for linear and flakey do.

New device-mapper target that can delay I/O (for testing). Reads can be
separated from writes, redirected to different underlying devices and delayed
by differing amounts of time.
