scan: use new label_scan for lvmcache_label_scan
To do label scanning, lvm code calls lvmcache_label_scan().
Change lvmcache_label_scan() to use the new label_scan()
based on bcache.
Also add lvmcache_label_rescan_vg() which calls the new
label_scan_devs() which does label scanning on only the
specified devices. This is for a subsequent commit and
is not yet used.
Since extent_size is no longer power_of_2 this max region size
evalution was rather producing random bitsize as a combination
of lowest bit from number of extents and extent size itself.
Correct calculation to use whole LV size and pick biggest
possible power of 2 value smaller then UINT32_MAX.
Drop mirrored mirror log limitation that applies only in very limited
use-case and actually mirrored mirror log is deprecated anyway.
So 'disk' mirror log is selecting the correct minimal size, and
bigger size is only enforced with real mirrored mirror log.
Also for mirrored mirror log we let use 'smalled' region size if needed
so if user uses 1G region size, we still keep small mirror log
with much smaller region size in this case when needed.
Also mirror log extent calculation is now properly detecting error
with too big mirrors where previosly trimmed uint32_t was applies
unintentionally.
activation: add generic rule for visibility change
Whenever we make visible LV out of previously invisible one,
reload it's table - the is mandator for proper udev rule
processing as well as ensure content of dm table is correct.
TODO: this new generic rule probably make extra raid rules unnecessary.
Fixing regresion on argument acceptance where any lv can be passed
with paramaterless lvconvert which is meant to figure out needed
operation - i.e. wait for mirror synchronization.
User has no other 'effective' method to wait for mirror getting in-sync.

udev: keep systemd vars on change event in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules for systemd reload
The current logic that avoids setting SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS
on "change" events is flawed in the default "systemd background job"
configuration. For systemd, it's important that device properties don't
change spuriously.
If an "add" event starts lvm2-pvscan@.service for a device, and a
"change" event follows, removing SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS from the
udev db, information about unit dependencies between the device and the
pvscan service can be lost in systemd, in particular if the daemon
configuration is reloaded.
Steps to reproduce problem:
- create a device with an LVM PV
- remove device
- add device (generates "add" and "change" uevents for the device)
(at this point SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS are clear in udev db)
- systemctl daemon-reload
(systemd reloads udev db)
- vgchange -a n
- remove device
=> the lvm2-pvscan@.service for the device is still active although the
device is gone.
- add device again
=> the PV is not detected, because systemd sees the lvm2-pvscan@.service
as active and thus doesn't restart it.
The original purpose of this logic was to avoid volumes being scanned
over and over again. With systemd background jobs, that isn't necessary,
because systemd will not restart the job as long as it's active.

udev: explicit pvscan rule in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules
Make the distinction between the cases with and without systemd
background jobs explicit in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules rather than
substituting the rule from the Makefile. At this stage,
this improves only readibility, at the cost of one GOTO statement.
This patch introduces no functional change to the udev rules.
Test that no (Sub)LV remnants persist if the volume group is
not listed in configuration variable activation/volume_list,
hence not activatable thus causing initialization of rmeta
SubLVs to fail.

pools: skip checks when tools are missing
If the tools for checking thin_pool or cache metadata are missing,
issue rather just a WARNING, but let the operation of activation
continue.
This has the advantage, the if user is missing those tools,
but he already started to use thinpool or cacheing, he can
access these volumes with a WARNING.
Also if the user is using too old tools i.e. for CacheV2 format
dmpd tool 0.7 is required - provide informative WARNING and
skip failure from older tool version which can't understand
new format V2.
In case a newly created RaidLV is blacklisted using config
\"activation { volume list = [ ... ] }\" (i.e. its SubLVs stay inactive),
the metadata SubLVs can't get wiped thus failing the creation.
As a result, the RaidLV together with its SubLVs
is left behind in an inconsistent state.
Fix by removing the RaidLV and provide a hint about volume_list reasoning.

Introduce prioritized_section() as a closer match to previous logic

this memory only between suspend/resume thus notion of 'cookie' was

devcache: add reason and always log_error
With these read errors it's useful to know the reason.
Also avoid to log error just once so we know exactly

On the other hand reduce repeated log_error() on code 'backtrace'

actual read error is printed once for one read.
