Manage/external: for external metadata, add_to_super needs lock on container.

add_to_super could use information from the current superblock (ddf
does), so add_to_super for external metadata should be called with
the O_EXCL lock held on the container to ensure the update is complete
before any other process tries to make any changes (like adding
another device to array).
