Implement -t option to zpool import for temporary pool names
Originally, users had to handle spa namespace collisions by either exporting the already imported pool or by specifying a new name for the pool with a conflicting name. In the case of root pools from virtual guests, neither approach to collision resolution is reasonable. This is addressed by extending the new name syntax with a -t option to specify that the new name is temporary. When specified, this sets an internal flag that is passed into the kernel to tell it that all label updates should refer to the name used in the original label. Consequently, the original pool name will be retained on export. Signed-off-by: Richard Yao <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #2189

+Used with "\fBnewpool\fR". Specifies that "\fBnewpool\fR" is temporary. Temporary pool names last until export. Ensures that the original pool name will be used in all label updates and therefore is retained upon export.
