Subject: [PATCH] xen-blkfront: don't make discard-alignment mandatory

Don't require the discard-alignment xenstore node to be present in
order to correctly setup the feature. This can happen with versions of
QEMU that only write the discard-granularity but not the
discard-alignment node.

Assume discard-alignment is 0 if not present. While there also fix the
logic to not enable the discard feature if discard-granularity is not
present.
