alloc: fix lvextend when stripe number varies

The PREFERRED allocation mechanism requires the number of areas in the
previous LV segment to match the number in the new segment being
allocated.  If they do not match, the code may crash.
  E.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/989347

Introduce A_AREA_COUNT_MATCHES and when not set avoid referring
to the previous segment with the contiguous and cling policies.

 Version 2.02.100 -
 ================================
+  Ignore previous LV seg with alloc contiguous & cling when num stripes varies.
   Fix segfault if devices/global_filter is not specified correctly.
