[PATCH blktests] tests/throtl: add a new test 009

From: Tao Cui <[email protected]>

Test the boundary condition of removing a cgroup while it still has IO
queued in the blk-throttle queue.  The queued bios must be flushed through
without any blk-cgroup or blk-throttle warning.

The dmesg check matches any blk-cgroup / blk-throttle warning rather than a
single call site, so it is not tied to one symbol.
