dba915cfee Implementation of 'verify reading' algorithm, which uses parity data for
verification of regular data when device is in complete state.
On verification error, EIO error is returned for the bio and sysctl
kern.geom.raid3.stat.parity_mismatch is increased.

f5a2f7feac Implement new reading algorithm, which will use parity component for reading
as well, even if device is in complete state.
I observe 40% of speed-up with this option for random read operations,
but slowdown for sequential reads.
Basically, without this option reading from a RAID3 device built from 5
components (c0-c4) looks like this:

	Request no.	Used components
	1		c0+c1+c2+c3
	2		c0+c1+c2+c3
	3		c0+c1+c2+c3

With the new feature:

	Request no.	Used components
	1		c0+c1+c2+c3
	2		(c1^c2^c3^c4)+c1+c2+c3
	3		c0+(c0^c2^c3^c4)+c2+c3
	4		c0+c1+(c0^c1^c3^c4)+c3
	5		c0+c1+c2+(c0^c1^c2^c4)
	6		c0+c1+c2+c3
	[...]

925fa96b13 - Add a manual page for graid3(8) utility.
- Connect it to the build.
- Inform geom(8) about it.
