Theodore Ts'o bb1158b92e mke2fs: account for physical as well as logical sector size
Some devices, notably 4k sector drives, may have a 512 logical
sector size, mapped onto a 4k physical sector size.

When mke2fs is ratcheting down the blocksize for small filesystems,
or when a blocksize is specified on the commandline, we should not
willingly go below the physical sector size of the device.

When a blocksize is specified, we -must- not go below
the logical sector size of the device.

Add a new library function, ext2fs_get_device_phys_sectsize()
to get the physical sector size if possible, and adjust the
logic in mke2fs to enforce the above rules.

Theodore Ts'o 543547a52a libe2p, libext2fs: Update file copyright permission states to match COPYING
The top-level COPYING file states that the e2p and ext2fs libraries
are available under the LGPLv2.  The files were incorrectly labelled.
Alex Thomas/Luster has been consulted wrt to the ext3_extents.h file;
the rest of the files were primarily authored by Theodore Ts'o.

Theodore Ts'o 93d5c38791 mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): If the sector size of the
device is larger than the default block size, then use the
	sector size of the device as the default block size.

getsectsize.c (ext2fs_get_device_sectsize): New function which
   	returns the hardware sector size (if it is available).
