Subject: [PATCH 01/17] lv_manip: better work with PERCENT_VG modifier

When using 'lvcreate -l100%VG' and there is big disproportion between
real available space and requested setting - automatically fallback
to 100%FREE.

Difference can be seen when VG is big and already most space was
allocated, so the requestion 100%VG can end (and by spec for % modifier
it's correct) as LV with size of 1%VG.  Usually this is not a big
problem - buit in some cases - like cache-pool allocation, this
can result a big difference for chunksize selection.

With this patch it's more closely match common-sense logic without
the need of reitteration of too big changes in lvm2 core ATM.

TODO: in the future there should be allocator solving all allocations
in a single call.

(cherry picked from commit 022ebb0cfebee4ac8fdbe4e0c61e85db1038a115)

 Version 2.03.03 - 
 ====================================
+  Improve -lXXX%VG modifier which improves cache segment estimation.
   Ensure migration_threshold for cache is at least 8 chunks.
   Move VDO support towards V2 target (6.2) support.
