dm: storage: support cache mode toggling

Browse Source 
1. support "writeback" and "writethru" mode toggling for virtio-blk
conditionally. When starting DM with "writethru" parameter in
virtio-blk, guest OS could not toggle cache mode. When starting DM
with "writeback" parameter in virtio-blk, guest OS could toggle
cache mode.

    ------------------------------
    DM cmdline  | toggle support
    ------------+-----------------
    writeback   | yes
    writethru   | no
    ------------------------------

2. To toggle cache mode, run below command in guest OS:

    echo "write back" > /sys/devices/xxx/vdx/cache_type
OR
    echo "write through" > /sys/devices/xxx/vdx/cache_type
