[PATCH] idea to automatic LVM naming

This changes the automatic partitioning code to name volume groups
using the hostname and naming logical volumes using the mount point.
So, instead of getting something like this:
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
We would get:
/dev/vg_loki/lv_home
Some decisions I made:
1) If the mount point is '/', use 'lv_root' as the naming template.
2) If the filesystem is swap, use 'lv_swap' as the naming template.
3) Do not use the FQDN, just use the hostname minus the domain.
This doesn't completely solve every problem, but maybe we can get some
more unique and descriptive LVM names.
Thoughts?
