This isolates the cable strategy into one routine and implements some
changes that together seem to sort the failure reports we are still
getting
- If the controller says it knows, believe it
- Otherwise if *any* drive sees 80wire believe it
The obvious approach of taking the worst drive view doesn't work. Lots of
cases in bugzilla show up as only the slave detecting the cable.
