Improve error detection after SG_IO ioctl. Checking only the return
value and response length is insufficient and leads to anomalies if a
drive does not have a serial number.

Don't rely on SCSI ioctl for reading NVMe serials - SCSI emulation for
NVMe devices can be disabled in the kernel config. Instead, try to get a
serial from /sys/block/nvme*/device/serial. If that fails for whatever
reason (i.e. no such attribute in old kernels) - fall back to the SCSI
method.
This also moves some SCSI-specific code from imsm_read_serial() to
scsi_get_serial().
