Add SYSCTL to get KERNBASE and relocated KERNBASE

Browse Source 
This change adds 2 new SYSCTLs, to retrieve the original and relocated KERNBASE
values. This provides an easy, architecture independent way to calculate the
running kernel displacement (current/load address minus original base address).

The initial goal for this change is to add a new libkvm function that returns
the kernel displacement, both for live kernels and crashdumps. This would in
turn be used by kgdb to find out how to relocate kernel symbols (if needed).
