nbd: Advertise realistic limits to block layer

We were basing the advertisement of maximum discard and transfer
length off of UINT32_MAX, but since the rest of the block layer
has signed int limits on a transaction, nothing could ever reach
that maximum, and we risk overflowing an int once things are
converted to byte-based rather than sector-based limits.  What's
more, we DO have a much smaller limit: both the current kernel
and qemu-nbd have a hard limit of 32M on a read or write
transaction, and while they may also permit up to a full 32 bits
on a discard transaction, the upstream NBD protocol is proposing
wording that without any explicit advertisement otherwise,
clients should limit ALL requests to the same limits as read and
write, even though the other requests do not actually require as
many bytes across the wire.  So the better limit to tell the
block layer is 32M for both values.

Behavior doesn't actually change with this patch (the block layer
is currently ignoring the max_transfer advertisements); but when
that problem is fixed in a later series, this patch will prevent
the exposure of a latent bug.
