iscsiadm: add nonpersistent mode to discovery mode
The default behavior for iscsiadm discovery mode is to store
the portals found in the node DB. This adds a op "nonpersistent"
to run iscsiadm discovery in a nonpersistent mode. In thos
mode iscsiadm will not access the node DB.
iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -o nonpersistent
will just print out the portals found.
icssiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -o nonpersistent -l
will print out the portals found and login. If this command
is run to logout you must run in session mode.
iscsiadm -m session -u
would logout all the sessions.
