ata: libata-core: Add BRIDGE_OK quirk for QEMU drives

Currently, whenever you boot with a QEMU drive over an AHCI interface,
you get:
[    1.632121] ata1.00: applying bridge limits

This happens due to the kernel not believing the given drive is SATA,
since word 93 of IDENTIFY (ATA_ID_HW_CONFIG) is non-zero. The result is
a pretty severe limit in max_hw_sectors_kb, which limits our IO sizes.

QEMU has set word 93 erroneously for SATA drives but does not, in any
way, emulate any of these real hardware details. There is no PATA
drive and no SATA cable.

As such, add a BRIDGE_OK quirk for QEMU HARDDISK. Special care is taken
to limit this quirk to "2.5+", to allow for fixed future versions.

This results in the max_hw_sectors being limited solely by the
controller interface's limits. Which, for AHCI controllers, takes it
from 128KB to 32767KB.
