Commit 76c44f6d80 introduced the possibly for "Overflow" to be reported
by the snapshot device's status. Older userspace (e.g. lvm2) does not
handle the "Overflow" status response.
Fix this incompatibility by requiring newer userspace code, that can
cope with "Overflow", request the persistent store with overflow support
by using "PO" (Persistent with Overflow) for the snapshot store type.

These files were getting the defines for EXPORT_SYMBOL because
device.h was including module.h. But we are going to put an
end to that. So add the proper export.h include now.

Store the reference to the snapshot cow device in the core snapshot
code instead of each exception store. It can be accessed through the
new function dm_snap_cow(). Exception stores should each now maintain a
reference to their parent snapshot struct.
This is cleaner and makes part of the forthcoming snapshot merge code simpler.

Add number of sectors used by metadata to the end of the snapshot's status
line.
Renamed dm_exception_store_type's 'fraction_full' to 'usage'. Renamed
arguments to be clearer about what is being returned. Also added
'metadata_sectors'.

The exception structure is not necessarily just a snapshot
element (especially after we pull it out of dm-snap.c).
Renaming appropriately.

Let the exception store types print out their status through
the new API, rather than having the snapshot code do it.
Adjust the buffer position to allow for the preceding DMEMIT in the
arguments to type->status().
