flags: add read and print of segtype flag

Allow storing LV status bits with segment type name field.
Switching to this since this field has better support for compatibility
with older version of lvm2 - since such unknown segtype will not cause
complete invisiblity of metadata from older lvm2 code - just the
particular LV will become unusable with unknown type of segment.

 Version 2.02.172 - 
 ===============================
+  Support storing status flags via segtype name field.
   Stop using '--yes' mode when fsadm runs without terminal.
   Extend validation of filesystems resized by fsadm.
   Enhance lvconvert automatic settings of possible (raid) LV types.
