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.
