When salvaging a volume (with DAFS or not), it is required to read the
volume headers of all volumes on the partition, so we know what volumes
are in the same volume group as the salvaged volume. Currently with
DAFS, this requirement can make demand-salvages very slow, since each
demand-salvage must read each volume header on the partition.
So, instead of having each demand-salvage read the volume headers
itself, have a demand-salvage request the required volume group
hierarchy information from the fileserver. The fileserver will scan the
partition's volume headers, and will keep the hierarchy cached in
memory. Any modifications to this hierarchy from volume
creation/deletion will update this volume group cache (VGC) via FSSYNC
commands.
This results in a dramatic salvaging speedup when many demand-salvages
are requested, and eliminates the cases where DAFS salvaging can be
significantly slower than non-DAFS salvaging.

Remove the #ifdef's around the bos restricted mode code. This makes
restricted mode available as part of the standard build, but a server
will not go into restricted mode unless the relevant command line
options are specified, or bos setrestricted is run.
Document bos_setrestricted and bos_getrestricted, and the new
'-restricted' command line option. Add a note to the man pages of
all of the commands whose behaviour is affected by restricted mode.
Add 'setr' and 'getr' aliases for setrestart and getrestart so that
these documented shortcuts continue to work (otherwise they'd be
ambiguous against setrestricted and getrestricted). Note that
setre, setres, and setrest will not work once this patch is applied.
