xtouqh 79bfba2fa8 Properly format NAME subsection of zfs/zpool subcommands
Use proper names (i.e. zfs-allow and zpool-add) in NAME subsections
of zfs/zpool subcommands instead of current "pretty-printed" ones as
makewhatis utilities (or some implementations of it, namely the one
from mandoc suite used in FreeBSD) look not only at the document title
but also in NAME subsection, adding zfs(8)/zpool(8) to search results
which is not correct. (Common sense and other utilities splitting
subcommands in multiple man pages, e.g. git, do the same.)

Remove hard coded "Linux" OS from manpages
The recommended practice for `.Os` on FreeBSD is to not specify any
arguments.  The correct OS name is used automatically.

Oddly enough, on the Linux distro I tested this on (CentOS 7), the man
pager defaulted to displaying "BSD" as the OS rather than "Linux".  To
accommodate this, tack " Linux" back on in an install hook on Linux.
This is much simpler than removing it for FreeBSD when vendored in the
base system.

zfs_create: round up volume size to multiple of bs
Round up the volume size requested in `zfs create -V size` to the next
higher multiple of the volblocksize. Updates the man page and adds a
test to verify the new behavior.

Ross Williams 870fc32fc9 Reorganize zfs(8) man page into sections
Most subcommands got their own manpages (e.g. create). Some related
commands grouped into a single manpage and symlinks created (e.g. set, 
get, and inherit). I did this when topics were either too short to 
warrant their own file or so interrelated that a user would want to
refer between commands in the same file.

Corrected .Sx internal references to .Xr cross refs; lots of .Sx 
references from when text was all in zfs.8 needed to be changed to 
.Xr zfs-$SUBCOMMAND 8 cross references.

Divided subcommand list in zfs(8) into sections of related 
functionality. This required writing new descriptions for some 
commands.

Preserved ".Os Linux", `.Os` macro parsing behavior differs between 
mandoc from the "BSD" mandoc package (available on Ubuntu) and man 
from Ubuntu's man-db package, which calls groff to format the manpages.

Groff handles the `.Os` macro differently and wrongly, defaulting 
it to "BSD" in `/usr/share/groff/*/tmac/mdoc/doc-common`, instead of
getting the default from `uname`.

A future set of changes will introduce build-time preprocessing of
manpages for platform-specific documentation and can insert the
correct operating system name.

Added SEE ALSO sections, the newly-divided zfs-*.8 subcommand man
pages needed their own SEE ALSO sections pointing to related
subcommands and, in some cases, documentation from other packages
(e.g. zfs-share.8).
