[libvirt] [PATCH 1/2] storage: zfs: enable on Linux
ZFS-on-Linux implementation of ZFS starting with version 0.6.4
contains all the features we use, so there's no reason to limit
libvirt ZFS storage backend to FreeBSD only.
There's still one difference between these implementations: ZFS on
FreeBSD requires to set 'volmode' option to 'dev' when creating
volumes, while ZFS-on-Linux does not need that.
Handle it by checking if 'volmode' option is needed by parsing usage
information of the 'zfs get' command.
