Detail: fix for an imsm container with a spare
Spares for imsm arrays do not have any info about the container in their metadata records. If Detail() inadvertantly picks such a device for ->get_array_info() it will end up with less than useful info for the container. So, continue to read from the disks until a non-spare device is found. This bug was found by timeouts waiting for udev to create the user-friendly container name. To detect future UUID reporting problems and a debug print to the timeout case in wait_for(). Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
