If the LVM ("lvm2") feature is not available, these calls would fail.
Really they ought to be part of the "lvm2" optgroup which would cause
the generator to call reply_with_unavailable_feature and generate the
correct ENOTSUP error. When vgscan was originally added in 2010 it
was not added to the optgroup, and when lvm_scan was later added in
2018 and deprecating vgscan, the same mistake was copied.
Before this commit they will try to run the lvm pvscan command which
will fail returning some other error (instead of ENOTSUP).
Fix this by turning the calls into no-ops if the LVM feature is not
available, since scanning for LVM objects when there is no LVM can be
safely turned into a no-op.
