API to add new datasets to a zone.

Doing this via dataset delegation (in the zone config) would require a reboot; this is a pretty stinky solution.

The other way to do this means just creating a new dataset in the global zone, and mounting it under the zone root somewhere. This completely removes the ability to manage ZFS from within the zone, however -- meaning we would need API calls for a fair chunk of ZFS functionality.

Hard call.
