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

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.

18b82048e4 mlockall() -> mlock()
This patch adds a new implementation of locking function instead
of mlockall() that may lock way too much memory (>100MB).
New function instead uses mlock() system call and selectively locks
memory areas from /proc/self/maps trying to avoid locking areas
unused during lock-ed state.

Patch also adds struct cmd_context to all memlock() calls to have
access to configuration.

For backward compatibility functionality of mlockall()
is preserved with "activation/use_mlockall" flag.

As a simple check, locking and unlocking counts the amount of memory
and compares whether values are matching.

2aabcc1c1c Add devices/data_alignment_detection to lvm.conf.
Adds 'data_alignment_detection' config option to the devices section of
lvm.conf.  If your kernel provides topology information in sysfs (linux
>= 2.6.31) for the Physical Volume, the start of data area will be
aligned on a multiple of the ’minimum_io_size’ or ’optimal_io_size’
exposed in sysfs.

minimum_io_size is used if optimal_io_size is undefined (0).  If both
md_chunk_alignment and data_alignment_detection are enabled the result
of data_alignment_detection is used.

If the pvcreate --dataalignmentoffset option is not specified the start
of a PV's aligned data area will be shifted by the associated
'alignment_offset' exposed in sysfs (unless
devices/data_alignment_offset_detection is disabled in lvm.conf).

0b502933c5 Introduce lvm2_install target.
Buildsystem support device-mapper only install,
but generic install tagret includes both dm+lvm2.

For distribution which uses separate install_device-mapper,
there is no way how to install lvm2 only
(so after installing lvm2 for packaging purposes
built system must remove installed device-mapper files).

Fix it by allowing lvm2_install target, similarily like
install_cluster for clvmd.

(install = install_device-mapper + install_lvm2)

8929ce6651 Add --dataalignment to pvcreate to specify alignment of data area. (mbroz)
This patch is not fully tested and leaves some related bugs unfixed.

Intended behaviour of the code now:

  pe_start in the lvm2 format PV label header is set only by pvcreate (or
vgconvert -M2) and then preserved in *all* operations thereafter.

  In some specialist cases, after the PV is added to a VG, the pe_start
field in the VG metadata may hold a different value and if so, it
overrides the other one for as long as the PV is in such a VG.

  Currently, the field storing the size of the data area in the PV label
header always holds 0.  As it only has meaning in the context of a
volume group, it is calculated whenever the PV is added to a VG (and can
be derived from extent_size and pe_count in the VG metadata).
