dm table: add immutable feature
Introduce DM_TARGET_IMMUTABLE to indicate that the target type cannot be mixed with any other target type, and once loaded into a device, it cannot be replaced with a table containing a different type. The thin provisioning pool device will use this. Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
