toollib: honour '-H|--history' switch while executing process_each_lv_in_vg
When processing LVs in a VG and when the -H|--history switch is used,
make process_each_lv_in_vg to iterate over historical volumes too.
For each historical LV, we use dummy struct logical_volume instance with
the "this_glv" reference set to a wrapper over proper struct
historical_logical_volume representation. This makes it possible to process
historical LVs just like normal live LVs (though a dummy one without any
segments and all the other fields zeroed and blank) and it also allows
for using all historical LV related information via lv->this_glv->historical
reference.
One can use a simple call to lv_is_historical to make a difference between
live and historical LV in all the code that is called by process_each_* fns.

cache: add kernel_cache_policy option
Pair kernel_cache_settings with kernel_cache_policy.
There is very small chance in error case that the value in table

Showing 'u' in the pv_attr reporting field is mostly unnecessary because
most PVs are allocatable, and being allocatable implies it is (u)sed,
and this is already obvious from other fields in the default 'pvs'
output like the VG name.
So move the new (u)sed pv_attr from character position 4 to 1, and only
show it in those rare cases when the PV is not (a)llocatable or the
relevant metadata is missing.
(Scripts should not be using pv_attr, but rather pv_allocatable,

vg_lock_newname() + vg_create(), like the previous

pvcreate and reacquired after the pvcreate because
pvcreate needs to reset lvmcache, which doesn't work
