If udev info is missing for a device, (which would indicate if it's an MD component), then do an end-of-device read to check if a PV is an MD component. (This is skipped when using hints since we already know devs in hints are good.) A new config setting md_component_checks can be used to disable the additional end-of-device MD checks, or to always enable end-of-device MD checks. When both hints and udev info are disabled/unavailable, the end of PVs will now be scanned by default. If md devices with end-of-device superblocks are not being used, the extra I/O overhead can be avoided by setting md_component_checks="start".
