Previously, the libc sendto(3) and recvfrom(3) implementations would
blindly assume that any unrecognized socket is a raw-IP socket. This
is not only inconsistent but also messes with returned error codes.

- switch to the NetBSD identifier system; it is not only better, but
also required for porting NetBSD ipcs(1) and ipcrm(1); however, it
requires that slots not be moved, and that results in some changes;
- synchronize some other things with NetBSD: where keys are kept, as
well as various non-permission mode flags;
- fix semctl(2) vararg retrieval and message field type;
- use SUSPEND instead of weird reply exceptions in the call table;
- fix several memory leaks and at least one missing permission check;
- improve the atomicity of semop(2) by a small amount, even though
its atomicity is still broken at a fundamental level;
- use the new cheaper way to retrieve the current time;
- resolve all level-5 LLVM warnings.

Now that uname(3) uses sysctl(2), we no longer need sysuname(2).
Backward compatibility is retained for old statically linked
binaries for a short while.
Also remove the now-obsolete MINIX3-specific "arch" field from the
utsname structure. While this is an ABI break at the libc level,
it should pose no problems in practice, because:
- statically linked programs (i.e., all of the base system) are not
affected, as they will use headers synchronized with libc;
- the structure is getting smaller, thus, older dynamically linked
programs (typically in pkgsrc) using the new libc will end up with
garbage in the "arch" field, but it is unlikely they will use this
field anyway, since it was specific to MINIX3;
- new dynamically linked programs using an old libc could end up with
memory corruption, but this is not a scenario that is expected to
occur in the first place - certainly not with programs from pkgsrc.

The new MIB service implements the sysctl(2) system call which, as
we adopt more NetBSD code, is an increasingly important part of the
operating system API. The system call is implemented in the new
service rather than as part of an existing service, because it will
eventually call into many other services in order to gather data,
similar to ProcFS. Since the sysctl(2) functionality is used even
by init(8), the MIB service is added to the boot image.
MIB stands for Management Information Base, and the MIB service
should be seen as a knowledge base of management information.
The MIB service implementation of the sysctl(2) interface is fairly
complete; it incorporates support for both static and dynamic nodes
and imitates many NetBSD-specific quirks expected by userland. The
patch also adds trace(1) support for the new system call, and adds
a new test, test87, which tests the fundamental operation of the
MIB service rather thoroughly.

This brings our tree to NetBSD 7.0, as found on -current on the
10-10-2015.
This updates:
- LLVM to 3.6.1
- GCC to GCC 5.1
- Replace minix/commands/zdump with usr.bin/zdump
- external/bsd/libelf has moved to /external/bsd/elftoolchain/
- Import ctwm
- Drop sprintf from libminc

The CD now boots directly from the ISO 9660 filesystem instead of using
MBR partitioning with Minix file systems. This saves some space on the
CD and reduces memory requirements by some unknown amount as the root
ramdisk is completely eliminated.
The x86 hard drive image creation is also rewritten in the same
fashion.
The setup is modified to be more NetBSD-like (unpacking sets
tarballs instead of blindly copying the CD contents). Splitting MINIX
into sets is done in another commit due to it being a nightmare to
rebase.
Since MINIX lacks union mounts for now, a bunch of ramdisks are
generated at run-time to make parts of the filesystem writeable for the
CD. This solution isn't ideal, but it's enough for an installation CD.

This patch adds support for the wait4 system call, and with that the
wait3 call as well. The implementation is absolutely minimal: only
user and system times of the exited child are returned (with all other
rusage fields left zero), and there is no support for tracers. Still,
this should cover the main use cases of wait4.
Change-Id: I7a04589a8423a23990ab39aa38e85d535556743a
- the userland call is now made to PM only, and PM relays the call to
other servers as appropriate; this is an ABI change that will
ultimately allow us to add proper support for wait3() and the like;
for the moment there is backward compatibility;
- the getrusage-specific kernel subcall has been removed, as it
provided only redundant functionality, and did not provide the means
to be extended correctly in the future - namely, allowing the kernel
to return different values depending on whether resource usage of
the caller (self) or its children was requested;
- VM is now told whether resource usage of the caller (self) or its
children is requested, and it refrains from filling in wrong values
for information it does not have;
- VM now uses the correct unit for the ru_maxrss values;
- VFS is cut out of the loop entirely, since it does not provide any
values at the moment; a comment explains how it should be readded.

Various generic file IOCTL calls should be processed by VFS rather
than individual drivers. For this reason, we rewrite them to use
fcntl(2) instead.

Currently, the userland ABI uses a single field ('user_sp') far
into the very large 'kinfo' structure on the shared kernel
information page. This precludes us from modifying or getting
rid of 'kinfo' in the future without breaking userland. This
patch adds a separate 'kuserinfo' structure to the kernel
information page, with only information that is part of the
userland ABI, in an extensible manner. Userland now uses this
field if it is present, and falls back to the old field if not.

Instead of importing an external _minix_kerninfo variable, any code
using the shared kernel page should now call get_minix_kerninfo(3).
Since this is the only logical name for such a function, rename the
previous get_minix_kerninfo call to ipc_minix_kerninfo.

The entire infrastructure relied on an ACK feature, and as such, it
has been broken for years now, with no easy way to repair it.

- synchronize request type with ioctl by making it unsigned long;
- unbreak VFS requests, as they were being sent to PM;
- use proper ioctl direction flags (and new numbers) for requests;
- remove some needless header inclusions;
- svrctl is in libc, make its message name reflect this;
- keep backward compatibility: svrctl is part of the userland ABI.

UDS expects the device number of the actual socket, not the device on
which the socket happens to reside. The code worked only because PFS
returned the same value in the st_dev stat field, which it will have
to continue doing for a while now.

Known limitations:
- comment for now testisofs, as iso9660fs is known to be broken.
Benefits:
- near 3x speed improvement on C++ code compilation, bringing down
make build to from 44min down to 21min.
- Allows for X applications to work properly, which should be available
in near-term future through pkgsrc for 3.3.0.

- replace a stray assert(0) with abort()
- remove unrequired copy-pasted #undef NDEBUG
- replace some #if NDEBUG by #if DEBUG as they protect debug printf()s.

- assert() is macro which is defined as empty, while panic is always
present. I added an explicit abort() after the macro to make sure the
function never returns in case of wrong flags.
- Fixed gcc build with -NDEBUG, -Os for ARM.
* A few 'may be used uninitialized' messages
* A few new missing support library functions where added in libminc.
