bd: Add support to create clone, snapshot and merge of LV images.
Special xattr names "clone" & "snapshot" can be used to create full and
linked clone of the LV images. GFID of destination posix file (to be
mapped) is passed as a value to the xattr. Destination posix file must
exist before running this operation.
These operations form a basis for offloading storage related operations
from QEMU to GlusterFS.
Syntax for full clone: xattr name: "clone" value: "gfid-of-dest-file"
Syntax for linked clone: xattr name: "snapshot" value: "gfid-of-dest-file"
Syntax for merging: xattr name: "merge" value: "path-to-snapshot-file"
Example:
setfattr -n clone -v <gfid-of-dest-file> /media/source
setfattr -n snapshot -v <gfid-of-dest-file> /media/source
setfattr -n merge -v "/media/sn" /media/sn
