We'd like a way for zdb to dump metadata in a machine-readable
format, so that we can bring that back from a customer site for
in-house diagnosis.  Think of it as a crash dump for zpools,
which can be used for post-mortem analysis of a malfunctioning
pool

Porting notes:
- [cmd/zdb/zdb.c]
  - a5778ea zdb: Introduce -V for verbatim import
  - In main() getopt 'opt' variable removed and the code was
    brought back in line with illumos.
- [lib/libzpool/kernel.c]
  - 1e33ac1 Fix Solaris thread dependency by using pthreads
  - f0e324f Update utsname support
  - 4d58b69 Fix vn_open/vn_rdwr error handling
  - In vn_open() allocate 'dumppath' on heap instead of stack
  - Properly handle 'dump_fd == -1' error path
  - Free 'realpath' after added vn_dumpdir_code block

Native ZFS for Linux!

ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris and is now maintained by the Illumos community.

ZFS on Linux, which is also known as ZoL, is currently feature complete. It includes fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, ZVOL, and ZPL layers.
