A bunch of monitor fixes
- Add noout flag for OSDs (/vitastor/config/osd/xx)
- Fix "effective" size of degraded PGs (and thus "used space") calculation in monitor
- Fix monitor not clearing PGs of deleted pools
- Fix incorrect PG generation with hosts with 0 OSDs
- Fix monitor crashing during primary OSD recheck when pool has no PGs
- Fix monitor crashing when node_placement included non-existing OSDs
- Fix possible data movement after removing OSDs reweighted to 0
- Remove extra empty keys from pool configurations created by vitastor-cli create-pool
- Fix 32-bit build
New features:
- Implement "hierarchical failure domains" and other complex distribution rules, for example
EC 4+2 over 3 DC, with 2 chunks per each DC ([documentation](docs/config/pool.en.md#level_placement))
- Make OSDs handle ENOSPC - now cluster stays online even if some OSDs fill up
to 100 %, only writes requiring free space hang
- Implement Stage/Unstage & volume locking for CSI to prevent parallel mounting
and/or modifications of the same volume
- Warn about full and almost full OSDs in vitastor-cli status
- Add an experimental NBD netlink map mode as an option ([documentation](docs/usage/nbd.en.md))
- Add --pg parameter to vitastor-cli describe, print objects with 0x in human-readable format too
- Add [administration docs](docs/usage/admin.en.md)
Bug fixes:
- Fix client operation retry timeout - previously the timeout wasn't applied and writes were
retries almost instantly
- Fix monitors crashing on invalid pool configurations
- Fix journaling - make each journal write wait for all previous journal writes
- Fix monitor thinking that OSD weight is 0 after deleting /osd/config/ key online
- Fix a write stall caused by flusher possibly not trimming journal on rollback
- Set 32k csum_block_size for HDD by default in vitastor-disk
After half a year of hard work, VitastorFS is finally here ! :-)
New features:
- VitastorFS, a full-featured clustered (read-write-many) file system.
Documentation: [VitastorFS](docs/usage/nfs.en.md)
- Embedded key-value database implementation based on Parallel Optimistic B-Tree
algorithm and used for the metadata of VitastorFS
- Pool management commands in vitastor-cli (create-pool, list-pools, rm-pool, modify-pool).
Thanks MIND Software (https://mindsw.io) for their contribution!

Bug fixes:
- Fix a very rare "infinite loop" in the client library
- Fix a rare OSD hang on during start when zeroing out bad metadata entries left from the previous run
