Note that due to e.g. write throttling ('wdrain'), it can stall all the disk
I/O instead of just the device it's configured for. Using it for removable
media is therefore not a good idea.

when trees were big and FAST mode was enabled by default.
So small block size doesn't benefits linear I/O operations in FAST and
significantly slowdowns in ECONOMIC (default) mode. For single stream random
I/Os so small block doesn't give much benefits, as access time is usually
bigger then transfer time there. Same time it requires all heads to seek
together for every single request, reducing performance on parallel load.
"split" is very ineffective for devices with rotating media as HDDs.
To be effective, it needs that transfer time reduction due to block
splitting was bigger then access time increase due to non-sequential
access. For modern HDDs I was able to reproduce it only with read sizes
of 2MB and above, which is almost not applicable in real life.
"load" algorithm same time is more universal and effective now.

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.

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.

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.

RELEASE_CRUNCH builds use NO_MAN anyway, so this change is primarily
to avoid that developers have to set NO_MAN manually when they build
the static variant.
The -l option changes the output to show the partition label, if applicable
and when present. The -r option changes the output to show the raw (i.e.
scheme-specific) partition types.
