[PATCH] idea to automatic LVM naming

[David Cantrell <dcantrell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This changes the automatic partitioning code to name volume groups  
using the hostname and naming logical volumes using the mount point.   
So, instead of getting something like this:

	/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00

We would get:

	/dev/vg_loki/lv_home

Some decisions I made:

1) If the mount point is '/', use 'lv_root' as the naming template.
2) If the filesystem is swap, use 'lv_swap' as the naming template.
3) Do not use the FQDN, just use the hostname minus the domain.

This doesn't completely solve every problem, but maybe we can get some  
more unique and descriptive LVM names.

Thoughts?
