lvconvert: snapshot prompts to confirm conversion

Since the type passed LV is changed and content of data detroyed,
query user with prompt to confirm this operation.
Also add a proper wiping of header.

Using '--yes' will skip this prompt:

lvconvert -s --yes vg/lv vg/lvcow

 =================================
+  Prompt for confirmation before change LV into a snapshot exception store.
   Return proper error codes for some failing lvconvert funtions.
   Add initial code to use cache tools (cache_check|dump|repair|restore).
   Add "degraded" activation mode and make it the default.
