block: kill QUEUE_ORDERED_BY_TAG
Nobody is making meaningful use of ORDERED_BY_TAG now and queue
draining for barrier requests will be removed soon which will render
the advantage of tag ordering moot. Kill ORDERED_BY_TAG. The
following users are affected.
* brd: converted to ORDERED_DRAIN.
* virtio_blk: ORDERED_TAG path was already marked deprecated. Removed.
* xen-blkfront: ORDERED_TAG case dropped.
