f74b821a66 Add zfs allow and zfs unallow support
ZFS allows for specific permissions to be delegated to normal users
with the `zfs allow` and `zfs unallow` commands.  In addition, non-
privileged users should be able to run all of the following commands:

  * zpool [list | iostat | status | get]
  * zfs [list | get]

Historically this functionality was not available on Linux.  In order
to add it the secpolicy_* functions needed to be implemented and mapped
to the equivalent Linux capability.  Only then could the permissions on
the `/dev/zfs` be relaxed and the internal ZFS permission checks used.

Even with this change some limitations remain.  Under Linux only the
root user is allowed to modify the namespace (unless it's a private
namespace).  This means the mount, mountpoint, canmount, unmount,
and remount delegations cannot be supported with the existing code.  It
may be possible to add this functionality in the future.

This functionality was validated with the cli_user and delegation test
cases from the ZFS Test Suite.  These tests exhaustively verify each
of the supported permissions which can be delegated and ensures only
an authorized user can perform it.

Two minor bug fixes were required for test-running.py.  First, the
Timer() object cannot be safely created in a `try:` block when there
is an unconditional `finally` block which references it.  Second,
when running as a normal user also check for scripts using the
both the .ksh and .sh suffixes.

Finally, existing users who are simulating delegations by setting
group permissions on the /dev/zfs device should revert that
customization when updating to a version with this change.

6bb24f4dc7 Add the ZFS Test Suite
Add the ZFS Test Suite and test-runner framework from illumos.
This is a continuation of the work done by Turbo Fredriksson to
port the ZFS Test Suite to Linux.  While this work was originally
conceived as a stand alone project integrating it directly with
the ZoL source tree has several advantages:

  * Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be packaged in zfs-test package.
    * Facilitates easy integration with the CI testing.
    * Users can locally run the ZFS Test Suite to validate ZFS.
      This testing should ONLY be done on a dedicated test system
      because the ZFS Test Suite in its current form is destructive.
  * Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be run directly in the ZoL source
    tree enabled developers to iterate quickly during development.
  * Developers can easily add/modify tests in the framework as
    features are added or functionality is changed.  The tests
    will then always be in sync with the implementation.

Full documentation for how to run the ZFS Test Suite is available
in the tests/README.md file.

Warning: This test suite is designed to be run on a dedicated test
system.  It will make modifications to the system including, but
not limited to, the following.

  * Adding new users
  * Adding new groups
  * Modifying the following /proc files:
    * /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
    * /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid
  * Creating directories under /

Notes:
  * Not all of the test cases are expected to pass and by default
    these test cases are disabled.  The failures are primarily due
    to assumption made for illumos which are invalid under Linux.
  * When updating these test cases it should be done in as generic
    a way as possible so the patch can be submitted back upstream.
    Most existing library functions have been updated to be Linux
    aware, and the following functions and variables have been added.
    * Functions:
      * is_linux          - Used to wrap a Linux specific section.
      * block_device_wait - Waits for block devices to be added to /dev/.
    * Variables:            Linux          Illumos
      * ZVOL_DEVDIR         "/dev/zvol"    "/dev/zvol/dsk"
      * ZVOL_RDEVDIR        "/dev/zvol"    "/dev/zvol/rdsk"
      * DEV_DSKDIR          "/dev"         "/dev/dsk"
      * DEV_RDSKDIR         "/dev"         "/dev/rdsk"
      * NEWFS_DEFAULT_FS    "ext2"         "ufs"
  * Many of the disabled test cases fail because 'zfs/zpool destroy'
    returns EBUSY.  This is largely causes by the asynchronous nature
    of device handling on Linux and is expected, the impacted test
    cases will need to be updated to handle this.
  * There are several test cases which have been disabled because
    they can trigger a deadlock.  A primary example of this is to
    recursively create zpools within zpools.  These tests have been
    disabled until the root issue can be addressed.
  * Illumos specific utilities such as (mkfile) should be added to
    the tests/zfs-tests/cmd/ directory.  Custom programs required by
    the test scripts can also be added here.
  * SELinux should be either is permissive mode or disabled when
    running the tests.  The test cases should be updated to conform
    to a standard policy.
  * Redundant test functionality has been removed (zfault.sh).
  * Existing test scripts (zconfig.sh) should be migrated to use
    the framework for consistency and ease of testing.
  * The DISKS environment variable currently only supports loopback
    devices because of how the ZFS Test Suite expects partitions to
    be named (p1, p2, etc).  Support must be added to generate the
    correct partition name based on the device location and name.
  * The ZFS Test Suite is part of the illumos code base at:
    https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/tree/master/usr/src/test
