dm: Fix "table" output format of dm-linear and dm-stripe

The existing "table" output showing device file path of pdev is
not compatible with dm in Linux kernel (and also DragonFlyBSD).
It should be showing "major:minor" instead.

These are all per-file locks which protect dev/pdev/target structure.

dm: Include <sys/vnode.h> in dm.h

dm.h already depends on vnode, so have dm.h include <sys/vnode.h>
instead of other .c files.

remove checks for failure after memory allocation calls that cannot fail:

kmem_alloc() with KM_SLEEP
kmem_zalloc() with KM_SLEEP
percpu_alloc()
pserialize_create()
psref_class_create()

all of these paths include an assertion that the allocation has not failed,
so callers should not assert that again.

make dm aware of physical sector sizes.

For aggregates of multiple disks we use the largest sector size from
all disks. For standard power-of-2 sizes this is the same as the least
common multiple. We still require proper alignment of the targets in
the mapping table.

Introduce struct pathbuf. This is an abstraction to hold a pathname
and the metadata required to interpret it. Callers of namei must now
create a pathbuf and pass it to NDINIT (instead of a string and a
uio_seg), then destroy the pathbuf after the namei session is
complete.

Update all namei call sites accordingly. Add a pathbuf(9) man page and
update namei(9).

The pathbuf interface also now appears in a couple of related
additional places that were passing string/uio_seg pairs that were
later fed into NDINIT. Update other call sites accordingly.

nothing critical in ioctl part of dm driver.

Merge the haad-dm branch to -current. This branch adds LVM functionality to
the base NetBSD system. It uses Linux LVM2 tools and our BSD licensed
device-mapper driver.

The device-mapper driver can be used to create virtual block devices which
maps virtual blocks to real with target mapping called target. Currently
these targets are available a linear, zero, error and a snapshot (this is
work in progress and doesn't work yet).

The lvm2tools adds lvm and dmsetup binary to based system, where the lvm
tool is used to manage and administer whole LVM and the dmestup is used to
communicate iwith device-mapper kernel driver. With these tools also
a libdevmapper library is instaled to the base system.

Building of tools and driver is currently disable and can be enabled with
MKLVM=yes in mk.conf. I will add sets lists and rc.d script soon.
