Commit rudimentary libufs manual pages, except for that for getino(3)/putino(3), inode.c has been reworked in Perforce to the point where a manual page may not be accurate. Certainly putino(3) has not even been merged back yet. These will need a lot of improvement for most applications, but they document the API enough to get someone on their feet, most likely. The best documentation still exists in the form of libufs(3) consumers in the base system.
