Add anything that looks like a container in /proc/mdstat to the devlist

When mdadm.conf is automatically generated, we might not know a
suitable /dev/name. But we do know the uuid of the container.
So allow that as an option.

i.e. in mdadm.conf you can have a line like
ARRAY uuid=whatever
and it will use auto-name-generation to give a name to the array at
assemble-time. The is different from blind auto-assembly in that the
array will be treated as 'local'.
Given an mdadm.conf like the following allow /dev/imsm and /dev/md/r1 to be
created by "mdadm -As".
DEVICES partitions
ARRAY /dev/imsm metadata=imsm auto=md UUID=b98f5dbe-aa859e7b-0e369b89-a80986d4
ARRAY /dev/md/r1 container=/dev/imsm member=0 auto=mdp UUID=3538e39c-b397c2e9-1aa031f9-2bc0eca4

Made the mistake of recompiling the F9 mdadm rpm which has a patch to
remove -Werror and add "-Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE -O2" which turns on lots
of errors:

Some kernel versions don't put a space between 'active' and '(auto-read-only)'
in /proc/mdstat. This causes a parsing problem leaving 'level' set to
NULL which causes a crash.
So synthesise a space there if it is missing, and check for 'level' to
be NULL and don't de-ref if it is.
sys/dir.h is an old BSD'ism, include dirent directly.
small step for better klibc support.
compile tested against glibc.

Have "#ifdef STATIC" in config.c, and the 'rmconf' target
was a mess.
Instead, create 'pwgr.c' with stub routines for those unavailable
when statically compiled, and include that in STATICOBJ

So when you say auto=md or auto=part in mdadm.conf, it give a preference
for type of array, but standard name will override.
But --auto=md is more insistant.
FIXME I'm not at all happy about handling of names that already exist.
I don't think that should be removed if the device is active.

This means the output of "mdadm -Es" can be used as a complete
mdadm.conf file .... if you really want to do that.

A pending patch to the kernel causes bitmap file updates
to not go through the page cache, so O_DIRECT is needed to
ensure that we read current data.

This includes:
adding --metadata= option to choose metadata format
adding metadata= word to config file.
