virdevmapper: Handle kernel without device-mapper support

Browse Source 
In one of my latest patch (v6.6.0~30) I was trying to remove
libdevmapper use in favor of our own implementation. However, the
code did not take into account that device mapper can be not
compiled into the kernel (e.g. be a separate module that's not
loaded) in which case /proc/devices won't have the device-mapper
major number and thus virDevMapperGetTargets() and/or
virIsDevMapperDevice() fails.

However, such failure is safe to ignore, because if device mapper
is missing then there can't be any multipath devices and thus we
don't need to allow the deps in CGroups, nor create them in the
domain private namespace, etc.
