David Teigland 9a50df291a man/help: rework extents and size output
Clean up and correct the details around --extents and --size.

lvcreate/lvresize/lvreduce/lvextend all now display the
extents option in usages.

The Size and Number value variables for --size and --extents
are now displayed without the [+|-] prefix for lvcreate.

Plaintext

lvextend extends the size of an LV. This requires allocating logical
extents from the VG's free physical extents. A copy\-on\-write snapshot LV
can also be extended to provide more space to hold COW blocks. Use
\fBlvconvert\fP(8) to change the number of data images in a RAID or
mirrored LV.
In the usage section below, \fB--size\fP \fISize\fP can be replaced
with \fB--extents\fP \fINumber\fP. See both descriptions
the options section.
