Add a separate dio read align field, as many out of place write
file systems can easily do reads aligned to the device sector size,
but require bigger alignment for writes.
This is usually papered over by falling back to buffered I/O for smaller
writes and doing read-modify-write cycles, but performance for this
sucks, so applications benefit from knowing the actual write alignment.
