cee5f0ca2d Emit a proper error message instead of dumping core when 1)
GEOM_PART does not exist in the kernel, and 2) the GEOM in
question does not exist.
Additionally abort in case of programming errors that result
in neither the class nor geom not being present in the gctl
request.

dc344ca5a4 Allow humanized numbers for LBAs, as well as partition indices for
gpart(8). LBAs in particular are ugly. The ganularity is a sector,
but users expect byte granularity when specifying the size or offset
with a SI unit. Handle LBAs specially to deal with this.

0dd9f21c23 Prefer the start and end attributes over the offset and size
attributes. The start and end more accurately describe the
space taken by a partition. The offset and size are used to
describe the effective (usable) storage of that partition.

a468c003ef - When writing metadata to a geom provider, open the it as read-write since it
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.

7f792cd758 Use humanize_number(), rather than a home-grown algorithm for
formatting a number in a human-friendly way.

Note that with this commit a megabyte changed from 1000000 to
1048576 and a 80G disk is now printed as being 75G in size.
This is deliberate. It's consistent with the core of geom(8).
However, the original choice for a megabyte being 1000000 was
on purpose and matches what disk vendors put on the box. The
consistency is considered more important.

ba196edbd2 By default backup geli metadata to a file. It is quite critical 512 bytes,
once it is lost, all data is gone.

Option '-B none' can by used to prevent backup. Option '-B path' can be
used to backup metadata to a different file than the default, which is
/var/backups/<prov>.eli.

The 'geli init' command also prints backup file location and gives short
procedure how to restore metadata.

The 'geli setkey' command now warns that even after passphrase change or keys
update there could be version of the master key encrypted with old
keys/passphrase in the backup file.

Add regression tests to verify that new functionality works as expected.

Update other regression tests so they don't create backup files.

59458baf2b Add two support functions:
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.
