blkio: Add io_merged stat
This includes both the number of bios merged into requests belonging to this cgroup as well as the number of requests merged together. In the past, we've observed different merging behavior across upstream kernels, some by design some actual bugs. This stat helps a lot in debugging such problems when applications report decreased throughput with a new kernel version. This needed adding an extra elevator function to capture bios being merged as I did not want to pollute elevator code with blkiocg knowledge and hence needed the accounting invocation to come from CFQ.
