libata: introduce sff_set_devctl() method

The set of libata's taskfile access methods is clearly incomplete as
it lacks a method to write to the device control register -- which
forces drivers like 'pata_bf54x' and 'pata_scc' to implement more
"high level" (and more weighty) methods like freeze() and postreset().

So, introduce the optional sff_set_devctl() method which the drivers
only have to implement if the standard iowrite8() can't be used (just
like the existing sff_check_altstatus() method) and make use of it
in the freeze() and postreset() method implementations (I could also
have used it in softreset() method but it also reads other taskfile
registers without using tf_read() making that quite pointless);
this makes freeze() method implementations in the 'pata_bf54x' and
'pata_scc' methods virtually identical to ata_sff_freeze(), so we
can get rid of them completely.
