dev-cache: Filter wipe does not guarantee a full /dev scan.

The code in dev_iter_create assumes that if a filter can be wiped, doing so will
always trigger a call to _full_scan. This is not true for composite filters
though, since they can always be wiped in principle, but there is no way to know
that a component filter inside will exist that actually triggers the scan.
