with the fix for #2909 (improving handling missing chunks), we
changed from bailing to warning during a garbage collection when
updating the atime of a chunk.
but, updating the atime can not only fail when the chunk is missing,
but also on other occasions, e.g. no permissions or more importantly,
no space left on the device. in that case, the atime of a valid and used
chunk cannot be updated, and the second sweep of the gc will remove that chunk.
[0] is a real world example of that happening.
instead, only warn on really missin chunks, and bail on all other
errors.

when executing this code as non-root, we use sg-tape-cmd (a setuid binary)
to execute various ioctls on the tape device
we give the command the open tape device fd as stdin, but did not
dup it, so the std::process:Stdio handle closed it on drop,
which let subsequent operation on that file fail (since it was closed)
fix it by dup'ing it before giving it to the command, and also refactor
the calling code, so that we do not forget to do this

we did this for 'mtx', but missed it for the sg_pt_changer code
refactor it into the MtxStatus strut, and call it from both
code paths

this check is not perfect since there are often multiple device
nodes per drive/changer, but from the scan api we should return always
the same, so for an api user this should be enough

so that an api user can get the drives belonging to a changer
without having to parse the config listing themselves

similar to the changers, create a listing at /tape/drive and put
the specific api calls below that
move the scan api call up one level
remove the status info from the config listing

so that an api user can see which drive belongs to which drivenum of a changer
for ones with multiple drives

add a changer listing here (copied from api2/config/changer)
and put the status and transfer api calls below that
puts the changer scan into the top level tape api
and removes the (now redundant) info from the config api path
