nvme: allow 64-bit results in passthru commands

It is not possible to get 64-bit results from the passthru commands, what prevents from getting for the Capabilities (CAP) property value. As a result, it is not possible to implement IOL's NVMe Conformance test 4.3 Case 1 for Fabrics targets [1] (page 123). This issue has been already discussed [2], but without a solution. This patch solves the problem by adding new ioctls with a new passthru structure, including 64-bit results. The older ioctls stay unchanged.
