Remove lvmetad

Native disk scanning is now both reduced and
async/parallel, which makes it comparable in
performance (and often faster) when compared
to lvm using lvmetad.

Autoactivation now uses local temp files to record
online PVs, and no longer requires lvmetad.

There should be no apparent command-level change
in behavior.
