Ideas for more automagic:
 - It should also make a null mount for new PFS, as this is recommended way to use PFSs.
 - It should set snapshots PFS option
(maybe `hammer pfs-slave' should just set this option by default;
a unique <name> could be derived from PFS name)

Then an already setup `hammer cleanup' will also manage new PFS.

Or, do we need to snapshot/prune/reblock a PFS slave,
if same retension policy as master is intended?
