Hi Guys,

Before dberholz complains about my next commit, given that we have
support in profiles for package.use, how soon can we start to use it to
replace the old crufty no* flags (particularly ones that are critical to
a system).

One of the ones I've got in my sights is USE=nolvmstatic of sys-fs/lvm2.
It exists because we default to building LVM as static because it gets
included into the genkernel init environment (ultimately it should be
built by genkernel directly, but that's a different issue).

To implement it, I'd be adding this entry to profiles/base/package.use:
# Build a static LVM by default, for genkernel usage
sys-fs/lvm2 static

Likewise, USE='nolvm1' can change to 'USE=lvm1', and be included in
package.use.
