    Add new block group profile to store 4 copies in a simliar way that
    current RAID1 does.  The profile attributes and constraints are defined
    in the raid table and used by the same code that already handles the 2-
    and 3-copy RAID1.
    
    The minimum number of devices is 4, the maximum number of devices/chunks
    that can be lost/damaged is 3. There is no comparable traditional RAID
    level, the profile is added for future needs to accompany triple-parity
    and beyond.
