gconcat: Implement new online append feature

Description

gconcat: Implement new online append feature

Implement the "gconcat append" command which can be used
to append a disk to the end of an existing gconcat device
without unmounting.

If the gconcat device is using the "automatic" method, i.e.,
stores metadata on the devices, new metadata is written
to all existing components, as well as to the newly added one.
