Make sure all changes to md/sync_action are notified.
When the 'resync' thread starts or stops, when we explicitly
set sync_action, or when we determine that there is definitely nothing
to do, we notify sync_action.
To stop "sync_action" from occasionally showing the wrong value,
we introduce a new flags - MD_RECOVERY_RECOVER - to say that a
recovery is probably needed or happening, and we make sure
that we set MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING before clearing MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED.
