fix(largeblock): redo VG activation using custom config

The change of system config for LVM means that `/dev/` is not scanned,
meaning the loop device is never used for VG activation.
Add a custom scan parameter to LVM commands.
We also now systematically do the call to _redo_vg_connection to use our
custom parameters to enable the LV on the correct device before calling
`EXTSR.attach()`.
