gnt-job list: Add option to include archived jobs

This provides a convenience option to include archived jobs in the
output list. It's equivalent to using “-o +archived”, but tab completion
is nicer.

Merge ganeti-master-cleaner back into ganeti-cleaner

Wipe added space when growing disks

This patch adds code to wipe newly added disk space when growing disks
using “gnt-instance grow-disk”. “New disk space” is defined as the delta
between the old block device size (not necessarily equal to the amount
recorded in the configuration) and the new recorded size. Extra caution...
