deadline-iosched: allow non-sequential batching
Deadline currently only batches sector-contiguous requests, so except for a few circumstances (e.g. requests in a single direction), it is essentially first come first served. This is bad for throughput, so change it to CSCAN, which means requests in a batch do not need to be sequential and are issued in increasing sector order.
