xen-block: treat XenbusStateUnknown the same as XenbusStateClosed
When a frontend gracefully disconnects from an offline backend, it will set its own state to XenbusStateClosed. The code in xen-block.c correctly deals with this and sets the backend into XenbusStateClosed. Unfortunately it is possible for toolstack to actually delete the frontend area before the state key has been read, leading to an apparent frontend state of XenbusStateUnknown. This prevents the backend state from transitioning to XenbusStateClosed and hence leaves it limbo. This patch simply treats a frontend state of XenbusStateUnknown the same as XenbusStateClosed, which will unblock the backend in these circumstances.
