When a new device is added by the multipath command, multipathd may know
of other paths that cannot be added to the device because they are
currently offline. Instead of ignoring these paths, multipathd will now
re-add them when they come back online. To do this, it multipathd needs
a new path variable add_when_online, to track devices that could not be
added to an existing multipath device because they were offline. These
paths are handled along with the other uninitialized paths.
