dff224669d Require --restorefile when using pvcreate --uuid.
Introduce --norestorefile to allow user to override the new requirement.

This can also be overridden with "devices/require_restorefile_with_uuid"
in lvm.conf -- however the default is 1.

other metadata options.

0ddb66efba Add --pvmetadatacopies as a synonym for --metadatacopies in various commands.
Going forward, we would like to allow users to specify the total
number of metadatacopies in a VG rather than on a per-PV basis.  In
order to facilitate that, introduce --pvmetadatacopes to replace
--metadatacopies everywhere.  We still allow --metadatacopies for
pv commands, but require --pvmetadatacopies for vg commands.
Eventually we will introduce --vgmetadatacopies.  Once we do that,
we should either deprecate --metadatacopies or make it a synonym based
on the command (pvmetadatacopies for pv commands, and vgmetadatacopies
for vg commands).  The latter option would likely just require a simple
'strncpy' check against cmd->command->name to qualify the merge_synonym
call.

Update nightly tests to cover the pvmetadatacopies synonym.

Note that this patch is the result of an eariler review comment for
the implicit pvcreate patches.  Should apply cleanly on top of the
implicit pvcreate patches (I applied after patch 10/10 in that series).

NOTE: This patch will require --pvmetadatacopies for vgconvert as
--metadatacopies is no longer accepted.

04b2a4bdcf Add --dataalignmentoffset to pvcreate to shift start of aligned data area
Adds pe_align_offset to 'struct physical_volume'; is initialized with
set_pe_align_offset().  After pe_start is established pe_align_offset is
added to it.

8929ce6651 Add --dataalignment to pvcreate to specify alignment of data area. (mbroz)
This patch is not fully tested and leaves some related bugs unfixed.

Intended behaviour of the code now:

  pe_start in the lvm2 format PV label header is set only by pvcreate (or
vgconvert -M2) and then preserved in *all* operations thereafter.

  In some specialist cases, after the PV is added to a VG, the pe_start
field in the VG metadata may hold a different value and if so, it
overrides the other one for as long as the PV is in such a VG.

  Currently, the field storing the size of the data area in the PV label
header always holds 0.  As it only has meaning in the context of a
volume group, it is calculated whenever the PV is added to a VG (and can
be derived from extent_size and pe_count in the VG metadata).
