f83b3962c1 asan: fix some reports from libasan
When compiled and used with:

CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -g -O0"
ASAN_OPTIONS=strict_string_checks=1:detect_stack_use_after_return=1:check_initialization_order=1:strict_init_order=1

we have few reported issue - they where not normally spotted, since
we were still accessing our own memory - but ouf of buffer-range.

TODO: there is still something to enhance with handling of #orphan vgids

66daedc6d2 skip indexing devices used by LVs in more commands
expands commit d5a06f9a7d
  "pvscan: skip indexing devices used by LVs"

The dev cache index is expensive and slow, so limit it
to commands that are used to observe the state of lvm.
The index is only used to print warnings about incorrect
device use by active LVs, e.g. if an LV is using a
multipath component device instead of the multipath
device.  Commands that continue to use the index and
print the warnings:

  fullreport, lvmdiskscan, vgs, lvs, pvs,
  vgdisplay, lvdisplay, pvdisplay,
  vgscan, lvscan, pvscan (excluding --cache)

A couple other commands were borrowing the DEV_USED_FOR_LV
flag to just check if a device was actively in use by LVs.
These are converted to the new dev_is_used_by_active_lv().

d651b340e6 commands: use AUTOTYPE in definitions
If a cmd def implies an LV type without --type
in the required options, then include the implied
type in the cmd def as AUTOTYPE: <type>
instead of including the redundant --type foo
in the OO list of options.

Including an implied --type in the OO list would
often cause multiple cmd defs to potentially be
identical when options were used, and a user
command could match more than one cmd def.

The AUTOTYPE values are listed in man page and
help output as
 [ --type foo (implied) ]

If a user command includes --type, it will usually
match a cmd def with --type in the required options.
But, if the user command matches a cmd def with
AUTOTYPE, then the specifed --type and AUTOTYPE must
match.

The man-generator program has a new --check
option that compares cmd defs to find any cmd defs
that are equivalent with the use of options,
and should have their options adjusted.

7b77226df2 man-generator: add option to check for repeated command definitions
Compares cmd defs based on two principles for avoiding repeated
commands (where a given command could match more than one cmd def):

. a cmd def should be a unique combination of required
  option args and position args

. avoid adding optional options to a cmd def that if
  used would make the command match a different cmd def

FIXME: record when repeated cmd defs are found so we can
avoid reporting them twice, e.g. once for A vs B and
second time for B vs A.

7bde16f5e1 man-generator: markup updates
Emit .ad l / .ad b less frequently around larger blocks
we want to keep left aligned.

Avoid emittting empty lines.

Reduce .HP usage and replace it with .TP.
However keep .HP for all option listings, as i.e. html rendering
can't handle well combintion of .TP an .HP together and .TP alone
is not indenting 2nd. line of long option line.
(For .TP line we don't need to emit .br)

Surround .SH with dots for better look.

For some .TP use plain more readable .I for a line.

Support rendering of optional [Number] (for --units).

Use better markup for units and instead of long markup string,
show individual units with markup.

8daf5cd45f man/help: change LV type listing
Previously, accepted LV types were presented as a series of suffixes
after the "LV" on the command line.  The addition of many new types
resulted in this becoming too long, e.g

  lvconvert --type cache --cachepool LV LV_linear_striped_thinpool_vdo_vdopool_vdopooldata_raid

For man pages, move these types from the command line to a new line
dedicated to listing accepted LV types:

  lvconvert --type cache --cachepool LV LV1
  ...

  LV1 types: linear striped thinpool vdo vdopool vdopooldata raid

The special "LV1" is used as a reference to avoid confusion
with other LVs that may appear on the command line.  There
are currently no commands with more than one typed LV, but
if there are cases with more, then "LV2" could also be used.

For command line usage/-h output, drop the LV types from the
command line specification.  The more detailed is not needed
in the help output and can be found in the man page.

2aed2a41f7 lvcreate: new cache or writecache lv with single command
To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command:

lvcreate --type cache|writecache
    -n Name -L Size --cachedevice PVfast VG [PVslow ...]

- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
  specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
  specified PVslow devices.
- Then, a new cachevol LV is created internally, using PVfast
  specified by the cachedevice option.
- Then, the cachevol is attached to the main LV, converting the
  main LV to type cache|writecache.

Include --cachesize Size to specify the size of cache|writecache
to create from the specified --cachedevice PVs, otherwise the
entire cachedevice PV is used.  The --cachedevice option can be
repeated to create the cache from multiple devices, or the
cachedevice option can contain a tag name specifying a set of PVs
to allocate the cache from.

To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command
using an existing cachevol LV:

lvcreate --type cache|writecache
    -n Name -L Size --cachevol LVfast VG [PVslow ...]

- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
  specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
  specified PVslow devices.
- Then, the cachevol LVfast is attached to the main LV, converting
  the main LV to type cache|writecache.

In cases where more advanced types (for the main LV or cachevol LV)
are needed, they should be created independently and then combined
with lvconvert.

Example
-------

user creates a new VG with one slow device and one fast device:

$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/fast1

user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 that uses all of
/dev/fast1 as a writecache:

$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1
    -n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1

Example
-------

user creates a new VG with two slow devs and two fast devs:

$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2 /dev/fast1 /dev/fast2

user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 and /dev/slow2
that uses all of /dev/fast1 and /dev/fast2 as a writecache:

$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1 --cachedevice /dev/fast2
    -n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2

Example
-------

A user has several slow devices and several fast devices in their VG,
the slow devs have tag @slow, the fast devs have tag @fast.

user creates a new 8G main LV on the slow devs with a
2G writecache on the fast devs:

$ lvcreate --type writecache -n main -L 8G
    --cachedevice @fast --cachesize 2G vg @slow

3145a85583 pvck: repair headers and metadata
To write a new/repaired pv_header and label_header:

  pvck --repairtype pv_header --file <file> <device>

This uses the metadata input file to find the PV UUID,
device size, and data offset.

To write new/repaired metadata text and mda_header:

  pvck --repairtype metadata --file <file> <device>

This requires a good pv_header which points to one or two
metadata areas.  Any metadata areas referenced by the
pv_header are updated with the specified metadata and
a new mda_header. "--settings mda_num=1|2" can be used
to select one mda to repair.

To combine all header and metadata repairs:

  pvck --repair --file <file> <device>

It's best to use a raw metadata file as input, that was
extracted from another PV in the same VG (or from another
metadata area on the same PV.)  pvck will also accept a
metadata backup file, but that will produce metadata that
is not identical to other metadata copies on other PVs
and other areas.  So, when using a backup file, consider
using it to update metadata on all PVs/areas.

To get a raw metadata file to use for the repair, see
pvck --dump metadata|metadata_search.

List all instances of metadata from the metadata area:
  pvck --dump metadata_search <device>

Save one instance of metadata at the given offset to
the specified file (this file can be used for repair):

  pvck --dump metadata_search --file <file>
    --settings "metadata_offset=<off>" <device>

b4402bd821 exported vg handling
The exported VG checking/enforcement was scattered and
inconsistent.  This centralizes it and makes it consistent,
following the existing approach for foreign and shared
VGs/PVs, which are very similar to exported VGs/PVs.

The access policy that now applies to foreign/shared/exported
VGs/PVs, is that if a foreign/shared/exported VG/PV is named
on the command line (i.e. explicitly requested by the user),
and the command is not permitted to operate on it because it
is foreign/shared/exported, then an access error is reported
and the command exits with an error.  But, if the command is
processing all VGs/PVs, and happens to come across a
foreign/shared/exported VG/PV (that is not explicitly named on
the command line), then the command silently skips it and does
not produce an error.

A command using tags or --select handles inaccessible VGs/PVs
the same way as a command processing all VGs/PVs, and will
not report/return errors if these inaccessible VGs/PVs exist.

The new policy fixes the exit codes on a somewhat random set of
commands that previously exited with an error if they were
looking at all VGs/PVs and an exported VG existed on the system.

There should be no change to which commands are allowed/disallowed
on exported VGs/PVs.

Certain LV commands (lvs/lvdisplay/lvscan) would previously not
display LVs from an exported VG (for unknown reasons).  This has
not changed.  The lvm fullreport command would previously report
info about an exported VG but not about the LVs in it.  This
has changed to include all info from the exported VG.

aee27dc7ba scan: skip device rescan in vg_read
For reporting commands (pvs,vgs,lvs,pvdisplay,vgdisplay,lvdisplay)
we do not need to repeat the label scan of devices in vg_read if
they all had matching metadata in the initial label scan.  The
data read by label scan can just be reused for the vg_read.
This cuts the amount of device i/o in half, from two reads of
each device to one.  We have to be careful to avoid repairing
the VG if we've skipped rescanning.  (The VG repair code is very
poor, and will be redone soon.)

36cac41115 man-generator/man/help: simplify hyphen escaping
Commits a29bb6a14b
    ... 5c199d99f4
narrowed down on addressing the escaping of hyphens
in the dynamic creation of manuals whilst avoiding
them in creating help texts.  This lead to a sequence
of slipping through hyphens adrressed by additional
patches in aforementioned commit series.

On the other hand, postprocessing dynamically man-generator
created and statically provided manuals catches all hyphens
in need of escaping.

Changes:
- revert the above commits whilst keeping man-generator
  streamlining and the detection of any '\' when generating
  help texts in order to avoid escapes to slip in

- Dynamically escape hyphens in manaual pages using sed(1)
  in the respective Makefile targets

- remove any manually added escaping on hyphens from any
  static manual sources or headers

optional minus sign with the value.  lvconvert --mirrors

a6a2788e7c commands: clean up and unify signed option value handling
Add new values for different sign variations, resulting in:

size_VAL      no sign accepted
ssize_VAL     accepts + or -
psize_VAL     accepts +
nsize_VAL     accpets -

extents_VAL   no sign accepted
sextents_VAL  accepts + or -
pextents_VAL  accepts +
nextents_VAL  accepts -

Depending on the command being run, change the option
values for --size, --extents, --poolmetadatasize to
use the appropriate value from above.

lvcreate uses no sign (but accepts + and ignores it).
lvresize accepts +|- for a relative change.
lvextend accepts + for a relative change.
lvreduce accepts - for a relative change.

b6c4b7cfb0 man/help: poolmetadatasize option can take relative value
In lvcreate/lvconvert, --poolmetdatasize can only be an
absolute value, but in lvresize/lvextend, --poolmetadatasize
can be given a + relative value.

The val types only currently support relative values that
go in both directions +|-.  Further work is needed to add
val types that can be relative in only one direction, and
switching various option values to one those depending on
the command name.  Then poolmetdatasize will not appear
with a +|- option in lvcreate/lvconvert, and will
appear with only the + option in lvresize/lvextend.
