Use the directory specified by the shell environment variable TMPDIR
for temporary objects creation and ngdump job simulation. If TMPDIR is
not set, then use "/tmp" for the mentioned purposes;
While running ngdump job in 'dry-run' mode:
. Don't format/mount the target dump device. Instead, create the
bootmap file and the meta-file at the temporary mount point without
mounting anything to it. Thus, the mentioned files to be acrually
created in the "proxy" file system owning the temporary mount point;
. Retrieve base disk info from the read-only dump device and
complete that info with the block size of the proxy file system;
Separate the steps on retrieving/setting file system block size
into a dedicated procedure;
Use definitions instead of hardcoded file names;
Fix a bug in an error path (accessing freed memory);
Make misc_open_simulate() and misc_open_exclusive() static;
Update man pages with the requirements on the system environment
(resources) for ngdump job being executed in dry-run mode;
Provide hints for user (in stderr) in case when ngdump job in dry-run
mode failed due to inappropriate system environment.
