Distributed Spare (dRAID) Feature
This patch adds a new top-level vdev type called dRAID, which stands
for Distributed parity RAID.  This pool configuration allows all dRAID
vdevs to participate when rebuilding to a distributed hot spare device.
This can substantially reduce the total time required to restore full
parity to pool with a failed device.

A dRAID pool can be created using the new top-level `draid` type.
Like `raidz`, the desired redundancy is specified after the type:
`draid[1,2,3]`.  No additional information is required to create the
pool and reasonable default values will be chosen based on the number
of child vdevs in the dRAID vdev.

    zpool create <pool> draid[1,2,3] <vdevs...>

Unlike raidz, additional optional dRAID configuration values can be
provided as part of the draid type as colon separated values. This
allows administrators to fully specify a layout for either performance
or capacity reasons.  The supported options include:

    zpool create <pool> \
        draid[<parity>][:<data>d][:<children>c][:<spares>s] \
        <vdevs...>

    - draid[parity]       - Parity level (default 1)
    - draid[:<data>d]     - Data devices per group (default 8)
    - draid[:<children>c] - Expected number of child vdevs
    - draid[:<spares>s]   - Distributed hot spares (default 0)

Abbreviated example `zpool status` output for a 68 disk dRAID pool
with two distributed spares using special allocation classes.

When adding test coverage for the new dRAID vdev type the following
options were added to the ztest command.  These options are leverages
by zloop.sh to test a wide range of dRAID configurations.

    -K draid|raidz|random - kind of RAID to test
    -D <value>            - dRAID data drives per group
    -S <value>            - dRAID distributed hot spares
    -R <value>            - RAID parity (raidz or dRAID)

The zpool_create, zpool_import, redundancy, replacement and fault
test groups have all been updated provide test coverage for the
dRAID feature.
