d50c6d4bf5 Add new --sysinit option for vgchange and lvchange.
A shortcut for --ignorelockingfailure, --ignoremonitoring, --poll n options
and LVM_SUPPRESS_LOCKING_FAILURE_MESSAGES environment variable used all at
once in initialisation scripts (e.g. rc.sysinit or initrd).

a6bc975a24 Improve activation monitoring option processing
. Add "monitoring" option to "activation" section of lvm.conf
. Have clvmd consult the lvm.conf "activation/monitoring" too.
. Introduce toollib.c:get_activation_monitoring_mode().
. Error out when both --monitor and --ignoremonitoring are provided.
. Add --monitor and --ignoremonitoring support to lvcreate.  Update
  lvcreate man page accordingly.
. Clarify that '--monitor' controls the start and stop of monitoring in
  the {vg,lv}change man pages.

7a8fa6aaab Add a [--poll {y|n}] flag to vgchange and lvchange to control whether
the background polldaemon is allowed to start.  It can be used
standalone or in conjunction with --refresh or --available y.

Control over when the background polldaemon starts will be particularly
important for snapshot-merge of a root filesystem.

Dracut will be updated to activate all LVs with: --poll n

The lvm2-monitor initscript will start polling with: --poll y

NOTE: Because we currently have no way of knowing if a background
polldaemon is active for a given LV the following limitations exist and
have been deemed acceptable:
1) it is not possible to stop an active polldaemon; so the lvm2-monitor
   initscript doesn't stop running polldaemon(s)
2) redundant polldaemon instances will be started for all specified LVs
   if vgchange or lvchange are repeatedly used with '--poll y'
