pvscan systemd service for event based activation
The pvscan systemd service for autoactivation was mistakenly dropped along with the lvmetad related services. The activation generator program now looks at the new lvm.conf setting "event_activation" (default 1) to switch between event activation and direct activation. Previously, the old use_lvmetad setting was used to switch between event and direct activation.
