Bug #206773 - Add a new PORTAGE_IONICE_COMMAND variable that emerge uses
to adjust ionice priority, similar to PORTAGE_NICENESS but used more like
FETCHCOMMAND since so that portage doesn't have to know anything about
ionice options. The command should include a \${PID} place-holder to be
substituted with an integer pid.
