    Inherit io_priority from the process creating the stream

    `couch_stream` should be able to reuse the `io_priority` of whatever 
process creates it; it's then the creator's responsibility to decide what 
`io_priority` the stream should have.
    
    Assigning streaming IO operations their own separately-tunable category of 
`io_priority` is an alternative to this change. The usefulness of that would 
depend on whether streaming IO in general has predictable load impacts that 
would be useful to observe and control for. Since `couch_stream` is only 
currently used by `couch_att`, though, giving attachment upload operations 
specifically an `io_priority` category might make more sense.

> The couch_stream gen_server makes several calls to couch_file:append_binary/2 
> in its callbacks, but doesn't ever set io_priority in its process dictionary. 
> This seems to result in all IO from couch_stream being handled through the 
> "other" channel, where it's not very easily manipulable.
