block: mq-deadline: Remove support for zone write locking

With the block layer generic plugging of write operations for zoned
block devices, mq-deadline, or any other scheduler, can only ever
see at most one write operation per zone at any time. There is thus no
sequentiality requirements for these writes and thus no need to tightly
control the dispatching of write requests using zone write locking.

Remove all the code that implement this control in the mq-deadline
scheduler and remove advertizing support for the
ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE elevator feature.
