Review request for Solid.


Description
-------

Current hack to check for removable property in StorageAccess devices goes up 
only one level to search for the StorageDrive device. This works fine with 
UDev, but not with HAL, which can have (at least on FreeBSD, where I'm testing 
it) a StorageVolume device in the middle. Going up the whole tree of the Block 
device ensures that we eventually get to the StorageDrive one to fetch the 
correct removable property.

While here, I'd like to ask why only removable is set (in a not so convincing 
way, as a removable device can be non-hotpluggable as far as I know) instead of 
both removable and hotpluggable, as done few lines above.

If approved, I'd like to commit this also to 4.9.

Testing
-------

Tested successfully on FreeBSD 10-CURRENT r239665 with KDE SC 4.9.0: my USB 
flash drives now appear in the device notifier plasmoid (and a console.log() in 
the plasmoid itself confirms that the device now has the Removable property).

I also double-checked with a UDev-backed `solid-hardware list details` log that 
the logic correctly applies to UDev.


Thanks,

Alberto Villa
