6a1957badc pvcreate: do not issue warning about any existing PV
If we're calling pvcreate on a device that already has a PV label,
the blkid detects the existing PV and then we consider it for wiping
before we continue creating the new PV label and we issue a warning
with a prompt whether such old PV label should be removed. We don't
do this with native signature detection code. Let's make it consistent
with old behaviour.

But still keep this "PV" (identified as "LVM1_member" or "LVM2_member"
by blkid) detection when creating new LVs to avoid unexpected PV label
appeareance inside LV.

eaa23d3273 wiping: add support for blkid wiping
This is actually the wipefs functionailty as a matter of fact
(wipefs uses the same libblkid calls).

libblkid is more rich when it comes to detecting various
signatures, including filesystems and users can better
decide what to erase and what should be kept.

The code is shared for both pvcreate (where wiping is necessary
to complete the pvcreate operation) and lvcreate where it's up
to the user to decide.

The verbose output contains a bit more information about the
signature like LABEL and UUID.

For example:
  raw/~ # lvcreate -L16m vg
  WARNING: linux_raid_member signature detected on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096. Wipe it? [y/n]

or more verbose one:
  raw/~ # lvcreate -L16m vg -v
  ...
     Found existing signature on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096: LABEL="raw.virt:0" UUID="da6af139-8403-5d06-b8c4-13f6f24b73b1" TYPE="linux_raid_member" USAGE="raid"
WARNING: linux_raid_member signature detected on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096. Wipe it? [y/n]

The verbose output is the same output as found in blkid.

03c941a4ca device: cleanup signature wiping functions
The wipe_known_signatures fn now wraps the _wipe_signature fn that is called
for each known signature (currently md, swap and luks). This patch makes the
code more readable, not repeating the same sequence when used anywhere in the
code. We're going to reuse this code later...

c6f48b7c1a refactor: make device type recognition code common for general use
Changes:

- move device type registration out of "type filter" (filter.c)
to a separate and new dev-type.[ch] for common use throughout the code

- the structure for keeping the major numbers detected for available
device types and available partitioning available is stored in
"dev_types" structure now

- move common partitioning detection code to dev-type.[ch] as well
together with other device-related functions bound to dev_types
(see dev-type.h for the interface)

The dev-type interface contains all common functions used to detect
subsystems/device types, signature/superblock recognition code,
type-specific device properties and other common device properties
(bound to dev_types), including partitioning support.

- add dev_types instance to cmd context as cmd->dev_types for common use

- use cmd->dev_types throughout as a central point for providing
information about device types
