dm-raid:  Move sectors_per_dev calculation later in the device creation process

In preparation for RAID10 inclusion in dm-raid, we move the sectors_per_dev
calculation later in the device creation process.  This is because we won't
know up-front how many stripes vs how many mirrors there are - which will
change the calculation.
