Simpler LRC configuration

Hi,

Based on Andreas suggestions for Xorbas configuration (in a previous thread) and the last G/H discussions ( https://wiki.ceph.com/Planning/CDS/CDS_Giant_and_Hammer_%28Jun_2014%29 ), here is a simpler configuration for the LRC plugin. Instead of replacing the generic description, it generates it from a user friendly set of parameters:

   https://github.com/dachary/ceph/commit/a2cfda81b8f51bb77f2c2708597f7ad7e1882b3c

The more flexible configuration syntax can be retained but the system administrator is not required to understand it.

What do people think ?

Cheers

This syntax is much simpler, nice!
As with all of the EC plugin work, that's about the level I'm working at. ;)
