block: Generalize chunk_sectors support as boundary support
The purpose of the chunk_sectors limit is to ensure that a mergeble request
fits within the boundary of the chunck_sector value.
Such a feature will be useful for other request_queue boundary limits, so
generalize the chunk_sectors merge code.
This idea was proposed by Hannes Reinecke.
