Most consumers of g_metadata_store were passing in partially unallocated
memory, resulting in stack garbage being written to disk labels. Fix them by
zeroing the memory first.
gvirstor repeated the same mistake, but in the kernel.
Also, glabel's label contained a fixed-size string that wasn't
initialized to zero.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
Any geom class using g_metadata_store, as well as geom_virstor which
duplicated g_metadata_store internally, would dump sectorsize - mdsize bytes
of userspace memory following the metadata block stored. This is most or all
geom classes (gcache, gconcat, geli, gjournal, glabel, gmirror, gmultipath,
graid3, gshsec, gstripe, and geom_virstor).

Move code that converts params from humanized numbers to sectors count
to subr.c and adjust comment.
Add post-processing for "size" and "start offset" params in gpart,
now they are properly converted to sectors count with known sector size
that can be greater that 512 bytes.
Also replace "unsigned long long" type to "off_t" for unify code since
it used for medium size in libgeom(3) and DIOCGMEDIASIZE ioctl.

might do subsequent reads from other providers. This stopped geli (and
probably other classes using g_metadata_store as well) from being put on top
of gvinum raid5 volumes.
Note:
The reason it fails in the gvinum raid5 case is that gvinum will read back the
old parity stripe before calculating the new parity stripe to be written out
again. The write will then fail because the underlying disk to be read is
opened write only.

o gctl_delete_param() -- intended for parameters that are consumed
by geom(8) itself and which should not be passed to the kernel.
o gctl_has_param() -- intended to check if optional parameters are
present.
Both are needed by gpart(8) to process the optional parameter for
writing bootcode to a partition (as part of the bootcode verb).
However, the kernel is itself not involved in this matter and the
parameter needs to be removed from the request destined for the
kernel.

Based on that provide three functions:
- gctl_get_ascii()
- gctl_get_int()
- gctl_get_intmax()
- Hide gctl_get_param() function, as it is only used internally in
subr.c.
- Allow to provide argument name as (fmt, ...).
- Assert geom(8) bugs (missing argument is a geom(8) bug).
- Clean-up and simplify the code by using new functions and assumtions
(no more checking for missing argument).

- g_lcm() - calculates Least Common Multiple of two given values,
it is helpful when we need to find sector size for provider
which is based on disks with different sector size;
- g_get_mediasize() - returns media size of given provider;
- g_get_sectorsize() - returns sector size of given provider;
Those function aren't used now, but are used by geom_mirror which will be
committed soon.
GEOM classes. It works by loading a shared library via dlopen(3) mechanism
with class-specific code, it is also responsible for communicating with
GEOM via libgeom(3).
Per-class shared libraries are going to be stored in /lib/geom/ directory.
It provides also few standard commands like 'list', 'load' and 'unload'
for existing classes which aren't aware of geom(8).
More info will be send on freebsd-current@ mailing list.
