If the DNR bit is set we should not retry the command.

We care about the retryable vs not retryable distinction at the block
layer so propagate the equivalent of the DNR bit by introducing
BLK_STS_DO_NOT_RETRY. Update blk_path_error() to _not_ retry if it
is set.

This change runs with the suggestion made here:

I don't think this works at all.  We lose way too much information here.
The proposal you linked was to literally propagate the DNR bit.  We'd
still need to make sure drivers for protocols don't support it have
a somewhat sensible options when to set or clear the bit.
