dm log userspace: add version number to comms
This patch adds a 'version' field to the 'dm_ulog_request'
structure.
The 'version' field is taken from a portion of the unused
'padding' field in the 'dm_ulog_request' structure. This
was done to avoid changing the size of the structure and
possibly disrupting backwards compatibility.
The version number will help notify user-space daemons
when a change has been made to the kernel/userspace
log API.
