 Log Message:
 Fix a long-standing bug related to rebooting while a
 reconstruct-to-spare is underway but not yet complete.
 
 The issue was that a component was being marked as a used_spare when
 the rebuild started, not when the rebuild was actually finished.
 Marking it as a used_spare meant that the component label on the spare
 was being updated such that after a reboot the component would be
 considered up-to-date, regardless of whether the rebuild actually
 completed!
 
 This fix includes:
  1) Add an additional state "rf_ds_rebuilding_spare" which is used
     to denote that a spare is currently being rebuilt from the live
     components.
  2) Update the comments on the disk states, which were out-of-sync
     with reality.
  3) When rebuilding to a spare component, that spare now enters the
     state rf_ds_rebuilding_spare instead of the state rf_ds_used_spare.
  4) When the rebuild is actually complete then the spare component
     enters the rf_ds_used_spare state.  rf_ds_used_spare is now used
     exclusively for the case where the rebuilding to the spare has
     completed successfully.
 
 XXX: Someday we need to teach raidctl(8) about this new state, and
 take out the backwards compatibility code in rf_netbsdkintf.c (see
 RAIDFRAME_GET_INFO in raidioctl()).  For today, this fix needs to be
 generic enough that it can get backported without major grief.
 
 XXX: Needs pullup to netbsd-5*, netbsd-6*, and netbsd-7
 
 Fixes PR#49244.
