isci: state machine cleanup

This cleans up several areas of the state machine mechanism:

 o Rename sci_base_state_machine_change_state to sci_change_state
 o Remove sci_base_state_machine_get_state function
 o Rename 'state_machine' struct member to 'sm' in client structs
 o Shorten the name of request states
 o Shorten state machine state names as follows:
        SCI_BASE_CONTROLLER_STATE_xxx to SCIC_xxx
        SCI_BASE_PHY_STATE_xxx to SCI_PHY_xxx
        SCIC_SDS_PHY_STARTING_SUBSTATE_xxx to SCI_PHY_SUB_xxx
        SCI_BASE_PORT_STATE_xxx to SCI_PORT_xxx and
        SCIC_SDS_PORT_READY_SUBSTATE_xxx to SCI_PORT_SUB_xxx
        SCI_BASE_REMOTE_DEVICE_STATE_xxx to SCI_DEV_xxx
        SCIC_SDS_STP_REMOTE_DEVICE_READY_SUBSTATE_xxx to SCI_STP_DEV_xxx
        SCIC_SDS_SMP_REMOTE_DEVICE_READY_SUBSTATE_xxx to SCI_SMP_DEV_xxx
        SCIC_SDS_REMOTE_NODE_CONTEXT_xxx_STATE to SCI_RNC_xxx
