Sage Weil 985a1405db librados: add get_version64()
The C++ AioCompletion::get_version() method only returns 32-bits.  Sigh.

Add a get_version64() method that returns all 64-bits. Do not touch the
32-bit version to avoid breaking the ABI.

* 'ceph osd crush set <id> <weight> <loc..>' no longer adds the osd to the
specified location, as that's a job for 'ceph osd crush add'. It will
however continue to work just the same as long as the osd already exists
in the crush map.
* The OSD now enforces that class write methods cannot both mutate an
object and return data. The rbd.assign_bid method, the lone
offender, has been removed. This breaks compatibility with
pre-bobtail librbd clients by preventing them from creating new
images.
* librados now returns on commit instead of ack for synchronous calls.
This is a bit safer in the case where both OSDs and the client crash, and
is probably how it should have been acting from the beginning. Users are
unlikely to notice but it could result in lower performance in some
circumstances. Those who care should switch to using the async interfaces,
which let you specify safety semantics precisely.
* The C++ librados AioComplete::get_version() method was incorrectly
returning an int (usually 32-bits). To avoid breaking library
compatibility, a get_version64() method is added that returns the
full-width value. The old method is deprecated and will be removed
in a future release. Users of the C++ librados API that make use of
the get_version() method should modify their code to avoid getting a
value that is truncated from 64 to to 32 bits.
