libata: track SLEEP state and issue SRST to wake it up

ATA devices in SLEEP mode don't respond to any commands.  SRST is
necessary to wake it up.  Till now, when a command is issued to a
device in SLEEP mode, the command times out, which makes EH reset the
device and retry the command after that, causing a long delay.

This patch makes libata track SLEEP state and issue SRST automatically
if a command is about to be issued to a device in SLEEP.
