cli/glusterd: Added support for dispersed volumes
Two new options have been added to the 'create' command of the cli interface: disperse [<count>] redundancy <count> Both are optional. A dispersed volume is created by specifying, at least, one of them. If 'disperse' is missing or it's present but '<count>' does not, the number of bricks enumerated in the command line is taken as the disperse count. If 'redundancy' is missing, the lowest optimal value is assumed. A configuration is considered optimal (for most workloads) when the disperse count - redundancy count is a power of 2. If the resulting redundancy is 1, the volume is created normally, but if it's greater than 1, a warning is shown to the user and he/she must answer yes/no to continue volume creation. If there isn't any optimal value for the given number of bricks, a warning is also shown and, if the user accepts, a redundancy of 1 is used. If 'redundancy' is specified and the resulting volume is not optimal, another warning is shown to the user. A distributed-disperse volume can be created using a number of bricks multiple of the disperse count.
