Adding new read-only compatible zpool features to compatibility.d/grub2
GRUB2 is compatible with all "read-only compatible" features,
so it is safe to add new features of this type to the grub2
compatibility list. We generally want to include all compatible
features, to minimize the differences between grub2-compatible
pools and no-compatibility pools.

Adding new properties `livelist` and `zpool_checkpoint` accordingly.

Also adding them to the man page which references this file as an
example, for consistency.

Add "compatibility" property for zpool feature sets
Property to allow sets of features to be specified; for compatibility
with specific versions / releases / external systems. Influences
the behavior of 'zpool upgrade' and 'zpool create'. Initial man
page changes and test cases included.

Brief synopsis:

zpool create -o compatibility=off|legacy|file[,file...] pool vdev...

compatibility = off : disable compatibility mode (enable all features)
compatibility = legacy : request that no features be enabled
compatibility = file[,file...] : read features from specified files.
Only features present in *all* files will be enabled on the
resulting pool. Filenames may be absolute, or relative to
/etc/zfs/compatibility.d or /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d (/etc
checked first).

Only affects zpool create, zpool upgrade and zpool status.

ABI changes in libzfs:

* New function "zpool_load_compat" to load and parse compat sets.
* Add "zpool_compat_status_t" typedef for compatibility parse status.
* Add ZPOOL_PROP_COMPATIBILITY to the pool properties enum
* Add ZPOOL_STATUS_COMPATIBILITY_ERR to the pool status enum

An initial set of base compatibility sets are included in
cmd/zpool/compatibility.d, and the Makefile for cmd/zpool is
modified to install these in $pkgdatadir/compatibility.d and to
create symbolic links to a reasonable set of aliases.
