The only elevator feature ever implemented is ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE
for signaling that a scheduler implements zone write locking to tightly
control the dispatching order of write operations to zoned block
devices. With the removal of zone write locking support in mq-deadline
and the reliance of all block device drivers on the block layer zone
write plugging to control ordering of write operations to zones, the
elevator feature ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE is completely unused.
Remove it, and also remove the now unused code for filtering the
possible schedulers for a block device based on required features.

Make sure we have helpers for all relevant module refcount operations on
the elevator_type in elevator.h, and use them. Move the call to the get
helper in blk_mq_elv_switch_none a bit so that it is obvious with a less
verbose comment.

Commit b5dc5d4d1f ("block,bfq: Disable writeback throttling") tries to
disable wbt for bfq, it's done by calling wbt_disable_default() in
bfq_init_queue(). However, wbt is still enabled if default elevator is
bfq:
device_add_disk
elevator_init_mq
bfq_init_queue
wbt_disable_default -> done nothing
blk_register_queue
wbt_enable_default -> wbt is enabled
Fix the problem by adding a new flag ELEVATOR_FLAG_DISBALE_WBT, bfq
will set the flag in bfq_init_queue, and following wbt_enable_default()
won't enable wbt while the flag is set.

Except for the features passed to blk_queue_required_elevator_features,
elevator.h is only needed internally to the block layer. Move the
ELEVATOR_F_* definitions to blkdev.h, and the move elevator.h to
block/, dropping all the spurious includes outside of that.
