Title: smartd: add options for monitored devices

This is a small patch to the smartd module, mostly to allow configuring smartd to automatically perform long and short media scans on devices.

My experience is that routing media scans will help catch media problems before a block becomes corrupt, and will help expose hardware problems before drive failures.
