MFC r323002: zfs: do not advertise unsupported hash algorithms

illumos 4185 ("add new cryptographic checksums to ZFS: SHA-512, Skein,
Edon-R") was intentionally merged only partially in r289422, without
adding support for skein, sha512 and edonr on FreeBSD.

Support for skein and sha512 was added later on (in head), but none of
these are supported in stable/10. Prior to this commit zfs(8) correctly
rejected these algorithms, but with an error message that claimed
support:

fk@r500 ~ $zfs set checksum=edonr tank
cannot set property for 'tank': 'checksum' must be one of 'on | off |
fletcher2 | fletcher4 | sha256 | sha512 | skein | edonr'

(This commit removes sha512 and skein in addition to edonr from the
merge of head's r323002.)

This is only a partial merge of respective ZFS infrastructure changes.
At this moment FreeBSD kernel has no those crypto algorithms, so the
parts of the code to enable them are commented out. When they are
implemented, it will be trivial to plug them in.

For more info, see:
- slides http://www.slideshare.net/MatthewAhrens/openzfs-send-and-receive
- video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY44jPMvxog
- manpage changes (for zfs resume -s and zfs send -t)
- upcoming talk at the OpenZFS Developer Summit

The TL;DR is:
Use "zfs receive -s" to save the partially received state on failure.
On failure, get the receive token with "zfs get receive_resume_token <fs>"
Resume the send with "zfs send -t <token_value>"

Relnotes: yes

MFC r274337,r274673,274681,r275515:

ZFS large block support. The default recordsize remains at 128KB.

A new tunable/sysctl variable, vfs.zfs.max_recordsize is added to
allow adjusting the permitted maximum record size, or
zfs_max_recordsize, with a default of 1MB. ZFS will not allow
setting recordsize greater than zfs_max_recordsize as a safety
belt, because larger recordsize means greater read and write
latency and more memory usage.

Please note that booting from datasets that have recordsize greater
than 128KB is not supported (but it's Okay to enable the feature on
the pool).

Limited safety belt is provided for mounted root filesystem but use
caution when using a larger value.

Illumos issue:
5027 zfs large block support

# 268647 15-Jul-2014 delphij

MFC r266771: MFV r266766:

Add a new zfs property, "redundant_metadata" which can have values "all" or
"most". The default will be "all", which is the current behavior. When set
to all, ZFS stores an extra copy of all metadata. If a single on-disk block
is corrupt, at worst a single block of user data (which is recordsize bytes
long) can be lost.

Setting to "most" will cause us to only store 1 copy of level-1 indirect
blocks of user data files. This can improve performance of random writes,
because less metadata has to be written. In practice, at worst about
100 blocks (of recordsize bytes each) of user data can be lost if a single
on-disk block is corrupt.

The exact behavior of which metadata blocks are stored redundantly may change
in future releases.

Illumos issue: 3835 zfs need not store 2 copies of all metadata

MFC r264145:
Add property and sysctl to control how ZVOLs are exposed to OS.

New ZFS property volmode and sysctl vfs.zfs.vol.mode allow switching ZVOL
between three modes:
geom -- existing fully functional behavior (default);
dev -- exposing volumes only as raw disk device file in devfs;
none -- not exposing volumes outside ZFS.

The "dev" mode is less functional (can't be partitioned, mounted, etc),
but it is faster, and in some scenarios with untrusted consumers safer.
It can be useful for NAS, VM block storages, etc.
The "none" mode may be convenient for backup servers, etc. that don't
need direct data access.

Due to the way ZVOL is integrated with main ZFS code, those property
and sysctl are checked only during pool import and volume creation.
