[ndctl,v3] ndctl, create-namespace: trap and report invalid sector-size values

While the kernel will prevent invalid configurations, the user
experience of a kernel error message and disabling of the namespace is
too harsh.  Trap and report these attempts to make create-namespace more
user friendly.

    # ndctl create-namespace -e namespace0.0 -m sector -l 513 -f -v
    validate_namespace_options:437: region0: does not support btt sector_size 513
    failed to reconfigure namespace
