s390/cio: fix measurement characteristics memleak
Measurement characteristics are allocated during channel path
registration but not freed during deregistration. Fix this by
embedding these characteristics inside struct channel_path.

s390/cio: ensure consistent measurement state
Make sure that in all cases where we could not obtain measurement
characteristics the associated fields are set to invalid values.
Note: without this change the "shared" capability of a channel path
for which we could not obtain the measurement characteristics was
incorrectly displayed as 0 (not shared). We will now correctly
report "unknown" in this case.

s390/cio: update measurement characteristics
Per channel path measurement characteristics are obtained during channel
path registration. However if some properties of a channel path change
we don't update the measurement characteristics.
Make sure to update the characteristics when we change the properties of
a channel path or receive a notification from FW about such a change.
