for SMART health events, use of the new max_available_extent sysfs
attribute for namespace creation, verbosity levels for ndctl-list, a
udev rule for enabling the LSS latch when supported, a bypass route
for making the unsafe shutdown count available for non-privileged users,
improvements to ndctl-inject-smart that include an 'uninject' option
for all fields, and a new unit test, a number of static analysis fixes,
and unit test improvements and fixes.
