Default ashift for Amazon EC2 NVMe devices

Add a default 4 KiB ashift for Amazon EC2 NVMe devices on instances with
NVMe ephemeral devices, such as the types c5d, f1, i3 and m5d.
As per the official documentation [1] a 4096 byte blocksize should be
used to match the underlying hardware.

The string was identified via:

$ sudo sginfo -M /dev/nvme0n1
