imsm: disambiguate family_num
This is a result of trawling through the Windows implementation to learn
the mechanism of how it disambiguates family_num. It is a continuation
of commit
148acb7b "imsm: fix family number handling" which introduced a
regression when reassembling a container with stale disks and rebuilt
members.
When rebuilding, a new family number is assigned to protect against the
"prodigal array member" problem. It prevents a former family member
from returning to the system and causing a rebuild to go the wrong
direction. However, this invalidates looking at the generation number to
determine the most up-to-date disk when comparing across family numbers.
Instead the assembly logic looks for agreement between a disk's local
family membership compared against a global list of all families in the
system. Whenever a disk's local metadata does not match a family number
on the global list that family number is marked offline.
It is possible that this logic results in multiple incompatible but
valid family numbers existing in a container. In this case mdadm.conf
cannot be consulted because it only records the uuid which is generated
from static fields in the metadata. The metadata lacks the data needed
to disambiguate "local" versus "foreign". The "foreign" array in this
case requires updating to change its container-id information
(orig_family_num), and possibly the member array names.
