[PATCH] xfsprogs: pick up 4k physical sector size

[Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>]

This splits the fs topology sectorsize into logical & physical,
and gets both via blkid_get_topology.

After that there are various gyrations & warnings to handle
various combinations of specified sector, blocksize, and
what's actually found on disk.

mkfs.xfs's "sector size" gets reduced to logical if
a block size < physical sector size is specified, for
example.
