Merge libzfs_core branch:
includes MFV 238590, 238592, 247580
MFV 238590, 238592:
In the first zfs ioctl restructuring phase, the libzfs_core library was
introduced. It is a new thin library that wraps around kernel ioctl's.
The idea is to provide a forward-compatible way of dealing with new
features. Arguments are passed in nvlists and not random zfs_cmd fields,
new-style ioctls are logged to pool history using a new method of
history logging.

MFV 247580 [1]:
To address issues of several deadlocks and race conditions the locking
code around dsl_dataset was rewritten and the interface to synctasks
was changed.
User-Visible Changes:
"zfs snapshot" can create more arbitrary snapshots at once (atomically)
"zfs destroy" destroys multiple snapshots at once
"zfs recv" has improved performance
Backward Compatibility:
I have extended the compatibility layer to support full backward
compatibility by remapping or rewriting the responsible ioctl arguments.
Old utilities are fully supported by the new kernel module.
Forward Compatibility:
New utilities work with old kernels with the following restrictions:
- creating, destroying, holding and releasing of multiple snapshots
at once is not supported, this includes recursive (-r) commands
Illumos ZFS issues:
2882 implement libzfs_core
2900 "zfs snapshot" should be able to create multiple,
arbitrary snapshots at once
3464 zfs synctask code needs restructuring

Merge recent zfs vendor changes, sync code and adjust userland DEBUG.
Illumos issued covered:
1884 Empty "used" field for zfs *space commands
3006 VERIFY[S,U,P] and ASSERT[S,U,P] frequently check if first argument
is zero
3028 zfs {group,user}space -n prints (null) instead of numeric GID/UID
3048 zfs {user,group}space [-s|-S] is broken
3049 zfs {user,group}space -t doesn't really filter the results
3060 zfs {user,group}space -H output isn't tab-delimited
3061 zfs {user,group}space -o doesn't use specified fields order
3064 usr/src/cmd/zpool/zpool_main.c misspells "successful"
3093 zfs {user,group}space's -i is noop
3098 zfs userspace/groupspace fail without saying why when run as non-root
