ccc35e2647 device-mapper: Fork libdm internally.
The device-mapper directory now holds a copy of libdm source.  At
the moment this code is identical to libdm.  Over time code will
migrate out to appropriate places (see doc/refactoring.txt).

The libdm directory still exists, and contains the source for the
libdevmapper shared library, which we will continue to ship (though
not neccessarily update).

All code using libdm should now use the version in device-mapper.

2232e82d25 makefiles: fixing linking
Avoid adding -g more then once for debug builds.
Avoid enabling  DEBUG_MEM when we build multithreaded tools.
Link executables with -fPIE -pie and --export-dynamic LDFLAGS
Introduce PROGS_FLAGS to add option to pass flags for external libs.
Link  lvm2 internally library only when really used.
Link DAEMON_LIBS with daemons.
Pass VALGRIND_CFLAGS internally
Set shell failure mode on couple places.

8b78982297 daemons: add dmfilemapd
Add a daemon that can be launched to monitor a group of regions
corresponding to the extents of a file, and to update the regions as the
file's allocation changes.

The daemon is intended to be started from a library interface, but can
also be run from the command line:

  dmfilemapd <fd> <group_id> <path> <mode> [<foreground>[<log_level>]]

Where fd is a file descriptor open on the mapped file, group_id is the
group identifier of the mapped group and mode is either "inode" or
"path". E.g.:

  # dmfilemapd 3 0 vm.img inode 1 3 3<vm.img
  ...

If foreground is non-zero, the daemon will not fork to run in the
background. If verbose is non-zero, libdm and daemon log messages will
be printed.

It is possible for the group identifier to change when regions are
re-mapped: this occurs when the group leader is deleted (regroup=1 in
dm_stats_update_regions_from_fd()), and another region is created before
the daemon has a chance to recreate the leader region.

The operation is inherently racey since there is currently no way to
atomically move or resize a dm_stats region while retaining its
region_id.

Detect this condition and update the group_id value stored in the
filemap monitor.

A function is also provided in the the stats API to launch the filemap
monitoring daemon:

  int dm_stats_start_filemapd(int fd, uint64_t group_id, const char *path,
                              dm_filemapd_mode_t mode, unsigned foreground,
                              unsigned verbose);

This carries out the first fork and execs dmfilemapd with the arguments
specified.

A dm_filemapd_mode_t value is specified by the mode argument: either
DM_FILEMAPD_FOLLOW_INODE, or DM_FILEMAPD_FOLLOW_PATH. A helper function,
dm_filemapd_mode_from_string(), is provided to parse a string containing
a valid mode name into the appropriate dm_filemapd_mode_t value.
