fix abd_nr_pages_off for gang abd
`__vdev_disk_physio()` uses `abd_nr_pages_off()` to allocate a bio with
a sufficient number of iovec's to process this zio (i.e.
`nr_iovecs`/`bi_max_vecs`).  If there are not enough iovec's in the bio,
then additional bio's will be allocated.  However, this is a sub-optimal
code path.  In particular, it requires several abd calls (to
`abd_nr_pages_off()` and `abd_bio_map_off()`) which will have to walk
the constituents of the ABD (the pages or the gang children) because
they are looking for offsets > 0.

For gang ABD's, `abd_nr_pages_off()` returns the number of iovec's
needed for the first constituent, rather than the sum of all
constituents (within the requested range).  This always under-estimates
the required number of iovec's, which causes us to always need several
bio's.  The end result is that `__vdev_disk_physio()` is usually O(n^2)
for gang ABD's (and occasionally O(n^3), when more than 16 bio's are
needed).

This commit fixes `abd_nr_pages_off()`'s handling of gang ABD's, to
correctly determine how many iovec's are needed, by adding up the number
of iovec's for each of the gang children in the requested range.
