minor updates to the lvcreate/lvconvert man pages.
...
- put back reference to '--corelog'. It now says that it
is the same as '--log core'.
- other minor touches

This patch changes the arguments that specify the mirror
...
log type. Previously, we had a '--corelog' argument that
would change the default type from 'disk' to 'core'. I
think that creates too much confusion - especially when
doing conversions on mirrors.
The new argument '--log' takes either "disk" or "core"
as a parameter. This could be expanded in the future
for additional logging types as well.
Examples:
# Creating a 2-way mirror
$> lvcreate -m1 ... # implicitly use default disk logging
$> lvcreate -m1 --log disk ... # explicit disk logging
$> lvcreate -m1 --log core ... # specify core logging
$> lvcreate -m1 --corelog ... # old way still works
# Conversion examples
$> lvconvert --log core ... # convert to core logging
$> lvconvert --log disk ... # convert to disk logging
$> lvconvert -mX --corelog ... # old way still works
$> lvconvert -mX ... # old way of converting to disk logging still works
Changes are reflected in the man pages.
