Currently if a member of a 1.x array is queried, mdadm will
fail to find the name of the active md array if there is one.
Change the lookup to use the mapfile - now it works.

Now that we recognise partition tables as a sort of metadata
we need to be careful in --query not to say that a device
with a partition table looks like a device in an array.
Testing ->compare_super for NULL is an easy way to do that.

When using human_size_brief, only IEC prefixes were supported. Now
it's possible to specify which format we want to see - either IEC
(kibi, mibi, gibi) or JEDEC (kilo, mega, giga).

To accurately detect when an array has been split and is now being
recombined, we need to track which other devices each thinks is
working.
We should never include a device in an array if it thinks that the
primary device has failed.
This patch just allows get_info_super to return a list of devices
and whether they are thought to be working or not.

This allows for larger device number if glibc supports
it (requires 2.3.3).
Also fail before creating larger device number if glibc
support isn't present.
