880507498a Add --addnodeonresume, --addnodeoncreate
Add new function dm_task_set_add_node() to select between 2 types
of node creation in device directory.

DM_ADD_NODE_ON_RESUME is now default and ensures node is created on
resume. Old original behavior is accessible with DM_ADD_NODE_ON_CREATE.
In this case node would be created during dmsetup create --notable.

For the user 2 new options for dmsetup create are added:
[{--addnodeonresume | --addnodeoncreate }]

Properly working node creation on resume is needed for proper operation
stacking and ability to correctly check in which state the device should
after whole udev transation.

9443b5d4cd Convey need for snapshot-merge target in lvconvert error message and man
page.

Add ->target_name to segtype_handler to allow a more specific target
name to be returned based on the state of the segment.

Result of trying to merge a snapshot using a kernel that doesn't have
the snapshot-merge target:

Before:
# lvconvert --merge vg/snap
  Can't expand LV lv: snapshot target support missing from kernel?
  Failed to suspend origin lv

After:
# lvconvert --merge vg/snap
  Can't process LV lv: snapshot-merge target support missing from kernel?
  Failed to suspend origin lv
  Unable to merge LV "snap" into it's origin.

bc963e745c Define vgmetadatacopies in vgchange man page.
This patch adds a vgmetadatacopies parameter for metadata balancing.
This parameter provides a simple way for users to create a policy for
placing metadata on PVs automatically by LVM.  The behavior is implemented
inside LVM by managing the 'ignore' mda bits.  We chose the name
'vgmetadatacopies' as this is a natural extension to the existing parameter
'pvmetadatacopies' / 'metadatacopies' in pvcreate.

This is a first step at VG parameter based metadata balancing.  Most users
will probably want to state that they want a certain number of PVs to contain
metadata, and they may be less concerned about a specific number of metadata
copies in the volume group.  However, for default values (pvmetadatacopies
is 1 by default), the number of metadatacopies in the volume group, and the
number of PVs with metadata are the same.  In the future we could add
vgmetadatacopiespvs to define more specifically the number of pvs in the
VG that contain metadata, but for now we start with this parameter.

Another possible future extension would be to define a specific pv tag
to mark the set of PVs that should be used for metadata balancing.  This
tag based approach could be used in conjunction with 'vgmetadatacopies'.

23b059e7b7 INSTALL rules updates
Patch is inspired by Debian's extra patch.

- removes OWNER & GROUP make vars they are parts of INSTALL command.
- adds INSTALL_PROGRAM for executable, uses $(INSTALL)
- adds INSTALL_DATA for non-executable data, uses ($INSTALL)
- adds INSTALL_WDATA for writable non-executable data, uses ($INSTALL)
- adds configure option --enable-write_install - to support
  installatin of writable files used by distribution
- replaces usage of ifeq @LIB_SUFFIX@ with $(LIB_SUFFIX)
- installs .a files from static builds without executable flag
- installs .a files to $(usrlibdir) instead of $(libdir)
- installs all static binaries to $(staticdir)
- create .so links for devel package in $(usrlibdir) instead of
  $(libdir)
- makes .so and .so.LIB_VERSION files within builddir
- removes VERSIONED_SHLIB and created versioned LIB_SHARED automagicaly
- install LIB_SHARED via install_lib_shared target
- install plugins via install_lib_shared_plugin target
- prints whole 'install' command during installation instead of less
  informative "Installing  $(something) $(somewhere)"
- install multiple man pages with one INSTALL command
- use DISTCLEAN_TARGETS instead of creating multiple distclean targets

c737d34804 Use vpath instead of VPATH.
Usage of VPATH makes troubles when used within $(builddir).
Not only source files are being found through VPATH,
but targets as well. (make --debug=v)

Thus if user builds the code in $(srcdir) and also in some $(builddir)
he gets mangled results as some generated files (i.e. .export.sym)
are 'reused' from $(srcdir) instead of $(builddir).

This patch switches to use vpath were we could explicitly name
suffixes that should be looked via vpath - we must take care,
we do not generate files with these suffixes:
.c, .in, .po, .exported_symbols
