- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

Minor rewording.

Discussed with: mav

Remove references to ataraid(4) and atacontrol(8).

Cross-reference gvinum(8) instead of vinum(8).

Add legacy support to geom raid to create a /dev/arX device for support
of upgrading older machines using ataraid(4) to newer releases.

This optional parameter is controlled via kern.geom.raid.legacy_aliases
and will create a /dev/ar0 device that will point at /dev/raid/r0 for
example.

Tested on Dell SC 1425 DDF-1 format software raid controllers installing from
stable/7 and upgrading to stable/9 without having to adjust /etc/fstab

For Promise/AMD metadata add support for disks with capacity above 2TiB
and for volumes with sector size above 512 bytes.

Add global and per-module sysctls/tunables to enable/disable metadata taste.
That should help to handle some cases when disk has some RAID metadata that
should be ignored, especially during boot.

Implement read-only support for volumes in optimal state (without using
redundancy) for the following RAID levels: RAID4/5E/5EE/6/MDF.

Add optional -o argument to the `graid label ` to specify some metadata
format options. Use it for specifying byte order for the DDF metadata:
big-endian defined by specification and little-endian used by Adaptec.

Add to GEOM RAID class module, supporting the DDF metadata format, as
defined by the SNIA Common RAID Disk Data Format Specification v2.0.

Supports multiple volumes per array and multiple partitions per disk.
Supports standard big-endian and Adaptec's little-endian byte ordering.
Supports all single-layer RAID levels. Dual-layer RAID levels except
RAID10 are not supported now because of GEOM RAID design limitations.

Some work is still to be done, but the present code already manages basic
interoperation with RAID BIOS of the Adaptec 1430SA SATA RAID controller.

Clarify disks/volumes above 2TiB support in geom_raid:
- add support for volumes above 2TiB with Promise metadata format;
- enforse and document other limitations:
- Intel and Promise metadata formats do not support disks above 2TiB;
- NVIDIA metadata format does not support volumes above 2TiB.

MFgraid/head:
Add new RAID GEOM class, that is going to replace ataraid(4) in supporting
various BIOS-based software RAIDs. Unlike ataraid(4) this implementation
does not depend on legacy ata(4) subsystem and can be used with any disk
drivers, including new CAM-based ones (ahci(4), siis(4), mvs(4), ata(4)
with `options ATA_CAM`). To make code more readable and extensible, this
implementation follows modular design, including core part and two sets
of modules, implementing support for different metadata formats and RAID
levels.

Support for such popular metadata formats is now implemented:
Intel, JMicron, NVIDIA, Promise (also used by AMD/ATI) and SiliconImage.

Such RAID levels are now supported:
RAID0, RAID1, RAID1E, RAID10, SINGLE, CONCAT.

For any all of these RAID levels and metadata formats this class supports
full cycle of volume operations: reading, writing, creation, deletion,
disk removal and insertion, rebuilding, dirty shutdown detection
and resynchronization, bad sector recovery, faulty disks tracking,
hot-spare disks. For Intel and Promise formats there is support multiple
volumes per disk set.

Look graid(8) manual page for additional details.
