Currently `zdb` consistently fails to examine non-idle pools as it
fails during the `spa_load()` process. The main problem seems to be
that `spa_load_verify()` fails as can be seen below:
$ sudo zdb -d -G dcenter
zdb: can't open 'dcenter': I/O error
ZFS_DBGMSG(zdb):
spa_open_common: opening dcenter
spa_load(dcenter): LOADING
disk vdev '/dev/dsk/c4t11d0s0': best uberblock found for spa dcenter. txg 40824950
spa_load(dcenter): using uberblock with txg=40824950
spa_load(dcenter): UNLOADING
spa_load(dcenter): RELOADING
spa_load(dcenter): LOADING
disk vdev '/dev/dsk/c3t10d0s0': best uberblock found for spa dcenter. txg 40824952
spa_load(dcenter): using uberblock with txg=40824952
spa_load(dcenter): FAILED: spa_load_verify failed [error=5]
spa_load(dcenter): UNLOADING
This change makes `spa_load_verify()` a dryrun when ran from
`zdb`. This is done by creating a global flag in zfs and then setting
it in `zdb`.
