FIXES:
------
o sil status()

o _sil_read() used LOG_NOTICE rather than LOG_INFO in order to
  avoid messages about valid metadata areas being displayed
  during "dmraid -vay".

o isw, sil filed metadata offset on "-r -D" in sectors rather than in bytes.

o isw needed dev_sort() to sort RAID devices in sets correctly.

o pdc metadata format handler name creation. Lead to
  wrong RAID set grouping logic in some configurations.

o _free_dev_pointers(): fixed potential OOB error

o hpt37x_check: deal with raid_disks = 1 in mirror sets

MISCELANIOUS:
------------

o more inline comments

o libdmraid_init() now returns lib context

  to check correct number of devices in sets; saves code in
  metadata format handlers

o optimized parse_table()

o updated dmraid manual

o devmapper.c: check target type registered before trying to load table record

o misc.c: avoid find_percent().

MISCELANIOUS:
------------

o converted get_scsi_serial to fallback using SG_IO,
  SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND and ATA identify

o introduced p_fmt() for formated string pushs in order to

o moved some paths + filenames to lib_context

o introduced RAID set flag for metadata format handlers 
  which decide to maximize capacity in unsymetric RAID0 sets
