People asked about duplicating data on a single device for a long time. There
are no technical obstacles preventing that, so it got enabled with a warning
about potential dangers when the device will not do the duplicated copies. See
mkfs.btrfs section DUP PROFILES ON A SINGLE DEVICE.

* usage=min..max -- enhanced to take range
* stripes=min..max -- new, filter by stripes for raid0/10/5/6
* limit=min..max -- enhanced to take range

inclusive as for the others, to keep the same behaviour as usage=N .
* manual pages enhanced (btrfs, mkfs, mount, filesystem, balance)
