shield Recommended update for mdadm

SUSE-SLE-Module-Basesystem-15-SP3-2021-3138

This update for mdadm fixes the following issues: - Remove Spare drives line from details for external metadata. (bsc#1180661, bsc#1182642) - Arrays with external metadata do not have spare disks directly assigned to volumes; spare disks belong to containers and are moved to arrays when the array is degraded/reshaping. Thus, the display of zero spare disks in volume details is incorrect and can be confusing. - Don't associate spares with other arrays during RAID Examine. (bsc#1180661, bsc#1182642) - Spares in imsm belong to containers, not volumes, and must go into a separate container when assembling the RAID. Remove association spares with other arrays and make Examine print separate containers for spares. Auto assemble without config file already works like this. So make creating a config file and assembling from it consistent with auto assemble. With this change, 'mdadm -Es' will add this line to output if spares are found: 'ARRAY metadata=imsm UUID=00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000'
