Call 'udevadm settle' after operations which add/remove device nodes.
Because udev operates asynchronously, we found errors which were caused by a previous command (eg. sfdisk or pvremove) creating or removing a device, and that change not having happened by the time the next command was run. This patch adds calls to '/sbin/udevadm settle' after any commands which can add or remove device nodes. If udev is not being used or not available, this should have no effect. The command fails and this is silently ignored.
