* Aligned the spelling of “RAID” to use captial letters in all places.
* Aligned the spelling of the RAID level names (LINEAR, RAID1, …) to use capital
letters in all places, except for the string “faulty” in places where not the
RAID level was meant.

While not strictly necessary for systemd, it is cleaner to avoid
forking when running from a management daemon. So add a --foreground
option to mdmon.

We still allow --offroot to be given - for compatibility with scripts
- but ignore it.
The whole point of --offroot is to get systemd to not auto-kill mdmon,
and we always want that.

Now that /run seems to be a good standard, make that
the default for storing various run-time files, rather than
/var/run or /dev/.mdadm.

It turns out that /lib/init/rw doesn't exist in early boot
like I thought. So give up on that idea and just use
/dev/.mdadm/ for files that must persist from early-boot
to regular boot.

running mdmon --takeover --all resulted in a segfault.
Also allow "--all" to be longer so that e.g. md_d127 can
successfully over-write it in the argument list visible
to 'ps'.

Using switch-root and then creating files in /var/run once
that location is writable is racing as most distro clean out
/var/run shortly after it is mounted.
This can cause the .pid and .sock files to be deleted shortly
after they are created.
This option doesn't seem to be used at all any, and the alternative
of communicating the pid etc in some preserved directory and then
restarting mdmon once all is settled seems simpler.
So remove the code for supporting switchroot and update man page
accordingly.

/var/run probably doesn't persist from early boot.
So if necessary, store in in /lib/init/rw or somewhere else
that does persist.
