sychronization.
- Use the per-process spinlock rather than the sched_lock for per-process
scheduling synchronization.

It is safe when gjournal is running on top of gmirror/graid3.

- Fix race between regular and synchronization requests.
- Reimplement mirror's data synchronization - do not use the topology lock
for this purpose, as it may case deadlocks.

to preserve currect behaviour). When set to 0, components are not
disconnected - gmirror will try to still use them (only first error will
be logged). This is helpful when we have two broken components, but in
different places, so actually all data is available.
Such buggy component will be visible in 'gmirror list' output with flag
BROKEN.
- Never disconnect the last valid component. If we detect errors there we
will just pass them up. This wasn't reasonable to deny access to the
whole provider because of one broken sector.

- Prefer '_' to ' ', as it results in more easily parsed results in
memory monitoring tools such as vmstat.
- Remove punctuation that is incompatible with using memory type names
as file names, such as '/' characters.
- Disambiguate some collisions by adding subsystem prefixes to some
memory types.
- Generally prefer lower case to upper case.
- If the same type is defined in multiple architecture directories,
attempt to use the same name in additional cases.

shared-last-sector problem.
After this change, even if there is more than one provider with the same
last sector, the proper one will be chosen based on its size.
It still doesn't fix the 'c' partition problem (when da0s1 can be confused
with da0s1c) and situation when 'a' partition starts at offset 0
(then da0s1a can be confused with da0s1 and da0s1c). One can use '-h'
option there, when creating device or avoid sharing last sector.
Actually, when providers share the same last sector and their size is equal,
they provide exactly the same data, so the name (da0s1, da0s1a, da0s1c)
isn't important at all.

After this change, when component is disconnected because of an I/O error,
it will not be connected and synchronized automatically, it will be logged
as broken and skipped. Autosynchronization can occur, when component is
disconnected (on orphan event) and connected again - there were no I/O
error, so there is no need to not connected the component, but when there were
writes while it wasn't connected, it will be synchronized.
This fix cases, when component is disconnected because of I/O error and can be
connected again and again.
- Bump version number.
- Add version change history.
- Implement backward compatibility mechanism. After this change when metadata in
old version is detected, it is automatically upgraded to the new (current)
version.
while doing g_(read|write)_data() (e.g. BSD). This can cause a deadlock
in MIRROR class. Not sure if this is safe to drop the topology lock in BSD
class, so change the code in MIRROR class to avoid this deadlock.
Keeping consumers open when device is closed is very hard. We need to
open consumers sometimes to update metadata, etc.
Many hacks was introduced in the past to made it possible. You cannot
be sure that you can open consumer for writing always, even if you think
it should be allowed. If one of the mirror components is for example da0
and you try to open it, you can get EPERM when da0s1 is opened for reading
(because BSD class opens consumers (da0) with an extra 'e' bit set).
Waiting for the events queue to be empty may do the trick, but it makes
code much uglier (as you cannot always call g_waitidle()), it doesn't
solve all edge cases and it can introduce deadlocks if there are events
in the queue that wait for gmirror.
I removed those hacks. Now all consumers are open r1w1e1 always, even if
device is closed. Maybe it is less clean from GEOM perspective, but simpify
code a lot and make it much more reliable.
The only issue was retaste event which is sent when we close consumers
opened for writing. I ignore retaste event by not detaching consumer
immediately (so retaste event is not send to my class) and sending event
right after it to detach and destroy consumer.
