scsi: scsi_debug: every_nth triggered error injection

Browse source 
This patch simplifies, or at least makes more consistent, the way setting
the every_nth parameter injects errors. Here is a list of 'opts' flags and
in which cases they inject errors when abs(every_nth)%command_count == 0 is
reached:

  - OPT_RECOVERED_ERR: issued on READ(*)s, WRITE(*)s and
                       WRITE_SCATTEREDs
  - OPT_DIF_ERR:       issued on READ(*)s, WRITE(*)s and
                       WRITE_SCATTEREDs
  - OPT_DIX_ERR:       issued on READ(*)s, WRITE(*)s and
                       WRITE_SCATTEREDs
  - OPT_SHORT_TRANSFER: issued on READ(*)s
  - OPT_TRANSPORT_ERR: issued on all commands
  - OPT_CMD_ABORT:     issued on all commands

The other uses of every_nth were not modified.

Previously if, for example, OPT_SHORT_TRANSFER was armed then if
(abs(every_nth) % command_count == 0) occurred during a command that was
_not_ a READ, then no error injection occurred. This behaviour puzzled
several testers. Now a global "inject_pending" flag is set and the _next_
READ will get hit and that flag is cleared. OPT_RECOVERED_ERR, OPT_DIF_ERR
and OPT_DIX_ERR have similar behaviour. A downside of this is that there
might be a hang-over pending injection that gets triggered by a following
test.

Also expand the every_nth runtime parameter so that it can take hex value
(i.e. with a leading '0x') as well as a decimal value. Now both the 'opts'
and the 'every_nth' runtime parameters can take hexadecimal values.
