a live file system.
While here modify snap_open() to accept a character device as its
first arg and remove now unneeded get_snap_device().

In particular:
- newfs will not try to erase the label
- fsck_ffs will not try to validate the label
This lets newfs and fsck work on 2048-byte-per-sector media.
Does Apple UFS support such media and how?
kernel refuse to mount a filesystem read-write (booting a system
multiuser with critical filesystems read-only is bad):
Add a check_wapbl() which will check some WAPBL values in the superblock,
and try to read the journal via wapbl_replay_start() if there is one.
pfatal() if one of these fail (abort boot if in preen mode,
as "CONTINUE" otherwise). In non-preen mode the bogus journal will
be cleared.
check_wapbl() is always called if the superblock supports WAPBL.
Even if FS_DOWAPBL is not there, there could be flags asking the
kernel to clear or create a log with bogus values which would cause the
kernel refuse to mount the filesystem.

partutil.c::getdiskinfo to use it to get disk geometry info.
Use DIOCGWEDGEINFO ioctl to get information about partition size, if disk
driver doesn't support it use old DIOCGDINFO. This patch adds support for
wedge like devices(lvm logical volumes, ZFS zvol partitions) to newfs and
other tools.
No objections on tech-userlevel@.
Add Wasabi System's WAPBL (Write Ahead Physical Block Logging)
journaling code. Originally written by Darrin B. Jewell while
at Wasabi and updated to -current by Antti Kantee, Andy Doran,
Greg Oster and Simon Burge.
OK'd by core@, releng@.
so handle it in each Makefile rather than sys.mk.
These ICEs might be related with GCC Bugzilla Bug 32424
which is not resolved yet even in the upstream.
systems just checked != 0, breaking MNT_GETARGS. Others worked with < 0,
but make them check against -1 too for consistency. And sprinkle some
stylish line wrapping where appropriate.
The progress bar will now travel from 0 to 20% during pass 1, from 20%
to 95% during pass 2, and from 95% to 100% during passes 3, 4, and 5.
Previously, the progress bar was not displayed at all during pass 1,
slowly traveled from 0 to about 50% during pass 2, and then very rapidly
traveled from 50% to 100% during passes 3, 4, and 5.
Note that fsck_ffs is the only user of fsck/progress.{c,h}.
struct disklabel.
Functionality lost:
1. struct disklabel used to be updated to contain bsize, fsize, cpg.
This information was used to locate the alternative superblock in
the filesystem if the primary superblock was corrupted. We need
to find a new place to store this information if we need this
functionality.
2. On vax SMD drives that contained bad sector lists, the newfs program
knew how to get the offset and skip to the correct location in order
to place the label.
