Public bug reported:

Make a few updates to how lxc-create chooses a backing store:

1. allow '-B btrfs,zfs,dir' to specify order of preference
2. allow '-B ANY' which chooses the best available - best being somewhat 
subjective.  Choices would be:
    1. if $lxcpath is btrfs, use btrfs with subvolume
    2. if a zfsroot called 'lxc' (or whatever is specified in 
/etc/lxc/lxc.conf) exists, use zfs
    3. if a lvm vg called 'lxc' (or whatever is specified in /etc/lxc/lxc.conf) 
exists, use lvm with default fstype/size
    4. use dir
3. It is yet to be decided whether when -B is not specified, and $lxcpath is 
btrfs, a btrfs subvolume should be created.
