nbd: add a reconfigure netlink command

We want to be able to reconnect dead connections to existing block devices, so add a reconfigure netlink command. We will also allow users to change their timeout on the fly, but everything else will require a disconnect and reconnect. You won't be able to add more connections either, simply replace dead connections with new more lively connections.
