Some block device integrity parameters are available in sysfs, but
others are only accessible using the FS_IOC_GETLBMD_CAP ioctl. Add a
metadata_size utility program to print out the logical block metadata
size, PI offset, and PI size within the metadata. Example output:
$ metadata_size /dev/ublkb0
metadata_size: 64
pi_offset: 56
pi_tuple_size: 8
