tape: adapt format_media for LTO9+

Browse Source 
starting with LTO9, a FORMAT(04h) command also reinitializates the tape,
which can take up to tw hours. Since we don't actually want to do that
every time we format, use 'erase_media' when we want a fast erase.
(On a slow erase, we let it run and wait until the drive is ready
again).

The users have to pre-initializate the tapes before using it for them to
work properly though.
