alloc: Use --alloc normal for mirror logs.

Browse Source 
The existing code doesn't understand that mirror logs should cling to
parallel LVs (like extending them) instead of avoiding them.

As a quick workaround to avoid lvcreate failures, hard-code
--alloc normal for mirror logs even if the rest of the allocation
used a stricter policy.
