[SCSI] rework scsi_target allocation

The current target allocation code registeres each possible target
with sysfs; it will be deleted again if no useable LUN on this target
was found. This results in a string of 'target add/target remove' uevents.

Based on a patch by Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> this patch reworks
the target allocation code so that only uevents for existing targets
are sent. The sysfs registration is split off from the existing
scsi_target_alloc() into a in a new scsi_add_target() function, which
should be called whenever an existing target is found. Only then a
uevent is sent, so we'll be generating events for existing targets
only.
