Add ability to create mirrored logs for mirror LVs.
This check-in enables the 'mirrored' log type. It can be specified
by using the '--mirrorlog' option as follows:
#> lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog mirrored -L 5G -n lv vg
I've also included a couple updates to the testsuite. These updates
include tests for the new log type, and some fixes to some of the
*lvconvert* tests.

Fix clvmd cluster propagation of dmeventd monitoring mode.
clvmd's do_lock_lv() already properly controls dmeventd monitoring based
on LCK_DMEVENTD_MONITOR_MODE in lock_flags -- though one small fix was
needed for this to work: _lock_for_cluster() must treat
dmeventd_monitor_mode()'s return as a tri-state value.
Also cleanup do_lock_lv() to:
- explicitly init_dmeventd_monitor() based on LCK_DMEVENTD_MONITOR_MODE
- no longer reset init_dmeventd_monitor() to default at the end of
do_lock_lv() -- it is unnecessary

Add support for ioctl's DM_UEVENT_GENERATED_FLAG.
We need to know whether we should wait for any uevent or not when
using udev_sync. A kernel patch was posted recently that changed the
way uevents are sent on dm device resume - it is sent only if the
device has been suspended before. There's also a new DM_UEVENT_GENERATED_FLAG
in the ioctl to notify userspace whether the event was generated.
If the uevent was not generated (e.g. the situation where the device is
*not* suspended and we call a resume), we just call dm_udev_complete
explicitly from within libdevmapper itself to prevent infinite waiting
while trying to synchronise with udev processing.

Avoid scanning all pvs in the system if operating on a device with mdas.
When we pv_read() a device that has an orphan vgname, we might need to scan
the system to be sure this is true. However, if the PV has mdas, there's
no way possible for it to have an orphan vgname unless it is a true orphan.
Some areas of the code were optimized to take advantage of this fact, while
others were not (we would still do the expensive scan if a device had mdas
but had an orphan VG).
This patch unifies the code so that every place we are operating on such
a PV, we skip the expensive scan if there are mdas.

mlockall() -> mlock()
This patch adds a new implementation of locking function instead
of mlockall() that may lock way too much memory (>100MB).
New function instead uses mlock() system call and selectively locks
memory areas from /proc/self/maps trying to avoid locking areas
unused during lock-ed state.
Patch also adds struct cmd_context to all memlock() calls to have
access to configuration.
For backward compatibility functionality of mlockall()
is preserved with "activation/use_mlockall" flag.
As a simple check, locking and unlocking counts the amount of memory
and compares whether values are matching.

Refactor snapshot-merge deptree and device removal to support info-by-uuid
Add a merging snapshot to the deptree, using the "error" target, rather
than avoid adding it entirely. This allows proper cleanup of the -cow
device without having to rename the -cow to use the origin's name as a
prefix.
Move the preloading of the origin LV, after a merge, from
lv_remove_single() to vg_remove_snapshot(). Having vg_remove_snapshot()
preload the origin allows the -cow device to be released so that it can
be removed via deactivate_lv(). lv_remove_single()'s deactivate_lv()
reliably removes the -cow device because the associated snapshot LV,
that is to be removed when a snapshot-merge completes, is always added
to the deptree (and kernel -- via "error" target).
Now when the snapshot LV is removed both the -cow and -real devices
get removed using uuid rather than device name. This paves the way
for us to switch over to info-by-uuid queries.
