25b733809a Merge with text format branch.
Lots of changes/very little testing so far => there'll be bugs!

Use 'vgcreate -M text' to create a volume group with its metadata stored
in text files.  Text format metadata changes should be reasonably atomic,
with a (basic) automatic recovery mechanism if the system crashes while a
change is in progress.

Add a metadata section to lvm.conf to specify multiple directories if
you want (recommended) to keep multiple copies of the metadata (eg on
different filesystems).

e.g. metadata {
        dirs = ["/etc/lvm/metadata1","/usr/local/lvm/metadata2"]
}

Plenty of refinements still in the pipeline.

568d7229bf Review locking: block signals instead of ignoring them and restore state
afterwards; avoid race condition with unlink; add LCK_HOLD to process_each_vg.

15c325f06a o Use new LCK_HOLD flag to indicate whether lock should be held on return
from lock_vol() - otherwise it now attempts to acquire the lock and then
  immediately releases it.
o Extend the id field in struct logical_volume to hold VG uuid + LV uuid
  for format1. This unique lvid can be used directly when calling lock_vol().
o Add the VG uuid to vgcache to make VG uuid lookups possible.  (Another
  step towards using them instead of VG names internally.)

4a624ca055 o ACTIVE is no longer a status flag - lv_active() used to check if an LV
is active in the device-mapper.
o Many operations can be carried out regardless of whether the VG is
  active or not.
o vgscan does not activate anything - use vgchange.
o Change lvrename to support renaming of active LVs.
o Remove '//' appearing in some pathnames.
o Dummy lv_check_segments() for compilation.

b80f32dd0a Clarify terminology:
VG is resizeable  - PVs can be added or removed
  PV is allocatable - free extents on it may be allocated to LVs
