a341cab721 Implement automatic snapshot extension with dmeventd, and add two new options
to lvm.conf in the activation section: 'snapshot_autoextend_threshold' and
'snapshot_autoextend_percent', that define how to handle automatic snapshot
extension. The former defines when the snapshot should be extended: when its
space usage exceeds this many percent. The latter defines how much extra space
should be allocated for the snapshot, in percent of its current size.

7063efe1bd Switch to using configure --with-default-data-alignment=<NUM> to
establish DEFAULT_DATA_ALIGNMENT.  Again, 0=64KiB, 1=1MiB, 2=2MiB

Default is 1.

4efb1d9cbb Update heuristic used for default and detected data alignment.
Add "devices/default_data_alignment" to lvm.conf to control the internal
default that LVM2 uses: 0==64k, 1==1MB, 2==2MB, etc.

If --dataalignment (or lvm.conf's "devices/data_alignment") is specified
then it is always used to align the start of the data area.  This means
the md_chunk_alignment and data_alignment_detection are disabled if set.

(Same now applies to pvcreate --dataalignmentoffset, the specified value
will be used instead of the result from data_alignment_offset_detection)

set_pe_align() still looks to use the determined default alignment
(based on lvm.conf's default_data_alignment) if the default is a
multiple of the MD or topology detected values.

b123a82d73 Change default alignment of pe_start to 1MB.
The new standard in the storage industry is to default alignment of data
areas to 1MB.  fdisk, parted, and mdadm have all been updated to this
default.

Update LVM to align the PV's data area start (pe_start) to 1MB.  This
provides a more useful default than the previous default of 64K (which
generally ended up being a 192K pe_start once the first metadata area
was created).

Before this patch:
# pvs -o name,vg_mda_size,pe_start
  PV         VMdaSize  1st PE
  /dev/sdd     188.00k 192.00k

After this patch:
# pvs -o name,vg_mda_size,pe_start
  PV         VMdaSize  1st PE
  /dev/sdd    1020.00k   1.00m

The heuristic for setting the default alignment for LVM data areas is:
- If the default value (1MB) is a multiple of the detected alignment
  then just use the default.
- Otherwise, use the detected value.

In practice this means we'll almost always use 1MB -- that is unless:
- the alignment was explicitly specified with --dataalignment
- or MD's full stripe width, or the {minimum,optimal}_io_size exceeds
  1MB
- or the specified/detected value is not a power-of-2

dff224669d Require --restorefile when using pvcreate --uuid.
Introduce --norestorefile to allow user to override the new requirement.

This can also be overridden with "devices/require_restorefile_with_uuid"
in lvm.conf -- however the default is 1.
