dev_manager: device_is_usable does not flush

When scanning if device is being usable as PV,
we call STATUS - but this status should not cause
any flushing.
Skip also open_count information as it's not needed.

 Version 2.02.150 -
 =================================
+  Avoid using flushing dm status ioctl when checking for usable DM device.
   Check for devices without LVM- uuid prefix only with kernels < 3.X.
   Reuse %FREE size aproximation with lvcreate -l%PVS thin-pool.
   Allow the lvmdump directory to exist already provided it is empty.
