Ross Williams c5ebfbbe19 Reorganize zpool(8) man page into sections
Moved subcommand topics into individual manpages. Reordered and 
grouped the list of subcommands by topic.

Moved concepts overview to `zpoolconcepts.8` and the long list of
available pool properties to `zpoolprops.8`.

Internal cross-references copied from `zpool.8` needed to be 
converted to `.Xr` external references to new subcommand manual 
pages.

Move `autotrim` into lexical order, autotrim tacked onto the end
of a list. Now it is in alphabetical order.

Clarify attach/detach description. Description was too specific to
command syntax. Overview clarifies reason for attaching or detaching
a device.

Clarify replace description, don't refer to subcommand arguments.

Clarify split command description, say what split actually does and
why you'd want to do it.

Clarify description of upgrade, and simplify the zpool.8 wording of
the zpool-upgrade(8) description.

Clarify description of import, detail what zpool-import(8) actually 
does.

Add appropriate SEE ALSO sections. Divided zpool subcommand manual 
pages need their own SEE ALSO sections. Also modified fsck.zfs.8 
to point directly to zfs-scrub.8 and zed.8.in to include a direct
reference to zfs-events.8

.Ar pool Ns ...
.Xc
Exports the given pools from the system.
All devices are marked as exported, but are still considered in use by other
subsystems.
The devices can be moved between systems
.Pq even those of different endianness
and imported as long as a sufficient number of devices are present.
.Pp
Before exporting the pool, all datasets within the pool are unmounted.
A pool can not be exported if it has a shared spare that is currently being
used.
.Pp
For pools to be portable, you must give the
.Nm
command whole disks, not just partitions, so that ZFS can label the disks with
portable EFI labels.
Otherwise, disk drivers on platforms of different endianness will not recognize
the disks.
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl a
Exports all pools imported on the system.
.It Fl f
Forcefully unmount all datasets, using the
.Nm unmount Fl f
command.
.Pp
This command will forcefully export the pool even if it has a shared spare that
is currently being used.
This may lead to potential data corruption.
