devmapper: Provide option to enabled deferred device deletion

Provide a command line option dm.use_deferred_deletion to enable deferred
device deletion feature. By default feature will be turned off.

Not sure if there is much value in deferred deletion being turned on
without deferred removal being turned on. So for now, this feature can
be enabled only if deferred removal is on.

* `dm.use_deferred_removal`
Enables use of deferred device removal if `libdm` and the kernel driver
support the mechanism.
Deferred device removal means that if device is busy when devices are
being removed/deactivated, then a deferred removal is scheduled on
device. And devices automatically go away when last user of the device
exits.
For example, when a container exits, its associated thin device is removed.
If that device has leaked into some other mount namespace and can't be
removed, the container exit still succeeds and this option causes the
system to schedule the device for deferred removal. It does not wait in a
loop trying to remove a busy device.
Example use: `docker daemon --storage-opt dm.use_deferred_removal=true`
* `dm.use_deferred_deletion`
Enables use of deferred device deletion for thin pool devices. By default,
thin pool device deletion is synchronous. Before a container is deleted,
the Docker daemon removes any associated devices. If the storage driver
can not remove a device, the container deletion fails and daemon returns.
`Error deleting container: Error response from daemon: Cannot destroy container`
To avoid this failure, enable both deferred device deletion and deferred
device removal on the daemon.
`docker daemon --storage-opt dm.use_deferred_deletion=true --storage-opt dm.use_deferred_removal=true`
With these two options enabled, if a device is busy when the driver is
deleting a container, the driver marks the device as deleted. Later, when
the device isn't in use, the driver deletes it.
In general it should be safe to enable this option by default. It will help
when unintentional leaking of mount point happens across multiple mount
namespaces.
Currently supported options of `zfs`:
* `zfs.fsname`
