[SCSI] qla4xxx: Do not add duplicate CHAP entry in FLASH

Browse source 
QLogic applications store the CHAP information in FLASH. During login,
authentication information is provided using an index into the CHAP region.

In order to support QLogic applications along with iscsiadm, updated the
LLD to not add duplicate CHAP entries in the CHAP region and preserve the
existing CHAP info in the CHAP region in FLASH.
This allows QLogic applications to pre-write the CHAP entries in the
CHAP region.

With iscsiadm, when the CHAP authentication information is sent to the LLD, the
LLD searches for the entry in CHAP region in FLASH, if exists then do not add.
If CHAP entry does not exist then add the CHAP entry in the CHAP region.
