fdd612b824 generators: avoid contacting syslog with generators
The systemd generators are executed very early during the switch
from initramfs to system partition and the syslog is not yet fully
operational - it may cause blocking, if some debug logging is enabled
at the same time in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf log{} section.

To avoid timeouting and killing this generator - rather enhance lvm
code to suppress any syslog communication when LVM_SUPPRESS_SYSLOG
envvar is set.

Use of this envvar is needed since the parsing of i.e. cmdline options
that could eventually override lvm.conf setting happens in this case
way too late and number of lines could have been already streamed to
syslog.

253bc5eb2e man lvm: define LVM and its terms
The lvm(8) man page never said what LVM is,
it never defined what the acronym LVM stands for,
it never spelled out other common acronyms VG, PV, LV,
and never described what they are.

This adds a very minimal definition which at least defines
the acronyms and entities, but it could obviously be
expanded on, either here or elsewhere.

36cac41115 man-generator/man/help: simplify hyphen escaping
Commits a29bb6a14b
    ... 5c199d99f4
narrowed down on addressing the escaping of hyphens
in the dynamic creation of manuals whilst avoiding
them in creating help texts.  This lead to a sequence
of slipping through hyphens adrressed by additional
patches in aforementioned commit series.

On the other hand, postprocessing dynamically man-generator
created and statically provided manuals catches all hyphens
in need of escaping.

Changes:
- revert the above commits whilst keeping man-generator
  streamlining and the detection of any '\' when generating
  help texts in order to avoid escapes to slip in

- Dynamically escape hyphens in manaual pages using sed(1)
  in the respective Makefile targets

- remove any manually added escaping on hyphens from any
  static manual sources or headers

ca905681cc man: Revise internal man page generation process.
For each section 8 man page, a .8_gen file is created from one of:
  .8_main            - Old-style man page - content used directly
  .8_des and .8_end  - Description and end section of a generated page
  .8_pregen	     - Pre-generated page used if the generator fails

Other man sections are not generated and use the suffix .5_main or .7_main.

Developers should use 'make generate' to regenerate the .8_pregen files.
