Corrected some wrong option usages according to the latest fix and our discussion.
Please have a review. Thanks.

I updated the PFL user guide per Niu's comment. The changes include:

• added commands/example to set default PFL layout to an existing directory
• added all kinds of PFL related "lfs getstripe" commands
• added all kinds of PFL related "lfs find" commands

Please have a check. Thanks!

I think it's worth to mention that 'lfs find support layout component options now, and give some example of set default PFL layout to a directory or mount point.

Just uploaded a new version user guide.

Thanks for Bobi and Niu's review. I will improve the doc according to your comments.

The way to provide optional argument for 'lfs getstripe' is changed by https://review.whamcloud.com/#/c/26491/ , you need to update your document, thanks.

It's a great user guide about PFL usage with graph and example illustration. I made a little adjustment recommendation in the uploaded doc.
