dm: fix native zone append devices on top of emulated ones

If a DM device that can pass down zone append commands is stacked on top
of a device that emulates zone append commands, it will allocate zone
append emulation resources, even though it doesn't use them. This is
because the underlying device will have max_hw_zone_append_sectors set
to 0 to request zone append emulation. When the DM device is stacked on
top of it, it will inherit that max_hw_zone_append_sectors limit,
despite being able to pass down zone append bios. Solve this by making
sure max_hw_zone_append_sectors is non-zero for DM devices that do not
need zone append emulation.
