Dear all,

this patch will change the LVM storage plugin to create striped rather
than linear logical volumes, which can multiply the throughput for volume groups backed by several controllers or network paths.

The number of stripes is set equal to the number of physical volumes in the volume group (which is determined using vgs). If this number is 1 (one), linear volumes are used as before.

This will affect only newly created containers. If existing containers are to be striped, they need to be re-created (e.g. via backup/restore).

This is my first time writing perl, so I'd appreciate a critical review of my code.

Kind regards,
Martin
