From: Jonathan E Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com>

This patch adds the ability to specify desired features in the mirror
constructor/mapping table.

The first feature of interest is "handle_errors".  Currently, mirroring
will ignore any I/O errors from the devices.  Subsequent patches will
check for this flag and handle the errors.  If flag/feature is not
present, mirror will do nothing - maintaining backwards compatibility.
