udev_sync: cookie_set=1 on each dm_task_set_cookie call

cookie_set variable found in the struct dm_task should be always
set to 1 after dm_task_set_cookie_call, even if udev_sync is disabled
as the cookie itself carries synchronization informations *as well as*
extra flags to control other aspects of udev support.

For example, one could disable the synchronization itself, but still
direct the libdm code to disable library fallback via
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag. These extra flags still need
to be carried out!

A concrete example:
  $ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 zero" --noudevsync

This disables synchronization with udev. As the --verifyudev option is
not used, we don't want to do any corrections. In other words, we
need DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag to be used. However,
with --noudevsync this was not the case - the flag was ignored!

This patch fixes the case when noudevsync is used but there are still
some extra flags passed within the cookie flag part. The synchronization
part of the cookie stays zero (which is ok as dm_udev_wait call on such a
cookie is simply a NOOP).

 Version 1.02.77 - 15th October 2012
 ===================================
+  Fix dm_task_set_cookie to properly process udev flags if udev_sync disabled.
   Support unmount of thin volumes from pool above thin pool threshold.
   Update man page to reflect that dm UUIDs are being mangled as well.
   Apply 'dmsetup mangle' for dm UUIDs besides dm names.
