block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size
Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.
This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.
