zdb: Introduce -V for verbatim import
When given a pool name via -e, zdb would attempt an import. If it failed, then it would attempt a verbatim import. This behavior is not always desirable so a -V switch is added to zdb to control the behavior. When specified, a verbatim import is done. Otherwise, the behavior is as it was previously, except no verbatim import is done on failure. Signed-off-by: Richard Yao <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #2372

Specifying a display option more than once enables verbosity for only that
option, with more occurrences enabling more verbosity.
