* KDiskDeviceManager::_ScanPartition() can now run synchronously (and execute the

scan job in the calling thread).
* KDiskDeviceManager::InitialDeviceScan() now runs synchronously, so that
  get_boot_partitions() doesn't need to do this ugly wait hack.
* KDiskDeviceManager::CreateFileDevice() can now run synchronously as well, which
  fixes a deadlock in fs_mount() - note, mounting file devices still doesn't work,
  though as Haiku's BFS doesn't allow this right now.
