md: improve partition detection in md array

md currently uses ->media_changed to make sure rescan_partitions
is call on md array after they are assembled.

However that doesn't happen until the array is opened, which is later
than some people would like.

So use blkdev_ioctl to do the rescan immediately that the
array has been assembled.

This means we can remove all the ->change infrastructure as it was only used
to trigger a partition rescan.
