Change the pvcreate swap/md logic

Browse Source 
pvcreate detects MD and swap signature.

The logic hidden there is not only documented but it is also
user unfriendly. Who invented this logic should run pvcreate
on its own critical MD device to see why;-)

This patch
 - creates one function instead of duplication code
 - asks if user want to overwrite signature
 - allows aborting (!)
 (Please note that writing LVM signatute without wiping old
 is wrong, it confuses blkid, MD will not work anyway and
 swap and LUKS is broken too.)
