b359b86f88 allocation: improve approx alloc with resize
Start to convert percentage size handling in lvresize to the new
standard.  Note in the man pages that this code is incomplete.
Fix a regression in non-percentage allocation in my last check in.

This is what I am aiming for:

-l<extents>
-l<percent> LV/ORIGIN
	sets or changes the LV size based on the specified quantity
	of logical logical extents (that might be backed by
	a higher number of physical extents)

-l<percent> PVS/VG/FREE
	sets or changes the LV size so as to allocate or free the
	desired quantity of physical extents (that might amount to a
	lower number of logical extents for the LV concerned)

-l+50%FREE - Use up half the remaining free space in the VG when
	carrying out this operation.

-l50%VG - After this operation, this LV should be using up half the
	space in the VG.

-l200%LV - Double the logical size of this LV.

-l+100%LV - Double the logical size of this LV.

-l-50%LV - Reduce the logical size of this LV by half.

4fbde0143a Support rounding of percentage upward
We want to keep this logic -
when LV is extend - extend the LV by at least given amount,
when LV is reduced - reduce the LV by at most given amount.

So for this the rounding needs to be used.
Current logic which seems to satisfy give rule is to round up all
extent values for LV resize upward except for values with '-' sign
that are round downward.

This patch also fixes the problem when  lvextend --use-polices tried
to extend LV the by i.e. 20% - but the resulting 20% were smaller
the extent size thus before this patch no extension happened.

5bc2af2688 Add %ORIGIN support to lv{create,extend,reduce,resize} --extents option
Allow the number of logical extents to be expressed (for a snapshot) as
a percentage of the total space in the Origin Logical Volume with the
suffix %ORIGIN.

Update the relevant man pages accordingly.  Eliminate inconsistencies
between the man pages and tools/commands.h

3d425215a8 Continue to make --units and --size consistent (in code and man pages):
Update units_to_bytes() to support (S)ectors: 500 bytes.
- 500 byte (S)ectors is of questionable value but it adds to consistency
  if a user happens to use --units S.  This seems better than an error.

Updated test/t-covercmd.sh to test --units [hS]

Document the units that can be displayed via --units uniformly.
- (p)etabytes and (e)xabytes were missing in pvs, vgs and lvs man pages.

Made lvreduce man page "... in units of megabytes." consistent (with the
lvextend and lvresize man pages).
