Rename the WATCHDOG option to SW_WATCHDOG and make it use the generic watchdoc(9) interface. Make watchdogd(8) perform as watchdog(8) as well, and make it possible to specify a check command to run, timeout and sleep periods. Update watchdog(4) to talk about the generic interface and add new watchdog(8) page.
