Alexander Larsson 242fd4b3ef dummy driver: Use cp --reflink=auto to copy directories
On systems that supports reflinking (i.e. btrfs) this means the dummy
backend is much faster at copying files and will be sharing file data in
a CoW fashion.

On my (btrfs) system this makes "docker run ubuntu echo hello world" go
from about 3 seconds to about 1 second. Not instant, but clearly better.

cp --reflink=auto is availible since coreutils 7.5 (around 2009), so this
seems pretty ok to rely on.

cp is also better at preserving file metadata than tar, so for instance
it will copy xattrs.

Alexander Larsson 10f23a94f6 Use dummy driver for volumes
It makes no sense to use the aufs or devicemapper drivers for volumes.
The aufs one is perhaps not a big problem, but the devicemapper one
certainly is. It will be unnecessarily using a dm
blockdevice-over-loopback with a limited size base FS.

This just hardcodes the driver to be the dummy, perhaps in the future
we can have other drivers that make sense for the volumes.

Alexander Larsson 243843c078 Print devicemapper status details in docker info
This adds a generic Status call in the Driver api and
implements if for the devicemapper backend.

The status is an array of key/value strings rather than a map so that
we can guarantee some static order of the docker info output.

Alexander Larsson e82f8c1661 Implement fallback operation for driver.Diff()
This moves the Diff() operation to a separate Differ interface and
implements a fallback that uses the Changes() results to encode
a diff tar.
