Subject: effective_io_concurrency and NVMe devices

NVMe devices have a maximum queue length of 64k:

	https://blog.westerndigital.com/nvme-queues-explained/

but our effective_io_concurrency maximum is 1,000:

	test=> set effective_io_concurrency = 1001;
	ERROR:  1001 is outside the valid range for parameter "effective_io_concurrency" (0 .. 1000)

Should we increase its maximum to 64k?  Backpatched?  (SATA has a
maximum queue length of 256.)
