Add ioctl(SG_IOSUBMIT_V3) and ioctl(SG_IORECEIVE_V3). These ioctls
are meant to be (almost) drop-in replacements for the write()/read()
async version 3 interface. They only accept the version 3 interface.

See the webpage at: http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg_v40.html
specifically the table in the section titled: "13 SG interface
support changes".

If sgv3 is a struct sg_io_hdr object, suitably configured, then
     res = write(sg_fd, &sgv3, sizeof(sgv3));
and
     res = ioctl(sg_fd, SG_IOSUBMIT_V3, &sgv3);
are equivalent. Dito for read() and ioctl(SG_IORECEIVE_V3).
