using "-width". The http://mdocml.bsd.lv/mdoc/details/width.html
says: "Do not use macros in the argument specifying the width,
that's not portable. While GNU troff can handle it, mandoc cannot."
The same problem seems to exist in many other man pages.

Multiple periodic scripts sleep for a random amount of time in order to
mitigate the thundering herd problem. This is bad, because the sum of
multiple uniformly distributed random variables approaches a normal
distribution, so the problem isn't mitigated as effectively as it would be
with a single sleep.
This change creates a single configurable anticongestion sleep. periodic
will only sleep if at least one script requires it, and it will never sleep
more than once per invocation. It also won't sleep if periodic was run
interactively, fixing an unrelated longstanding bug.

The goal of this work is to remove the explicit dependency for ctl(4)
on iscsi(4), so end-users without iscsi(4) support in the kernel can
use ctl(4) for its other functions.
This allows those without iscsi(4) support built into the kernel to use
ctl(4) as a test mechanism. As a sidenote, this was possible around the
10.0-RELEASE period, but made impossible for end-users without iscsi(4)
between 10.0-RELEASE and 11.0-RELEASE.
Automatically load cfiscsi(4) from ctladm(8) and ctld(8) for backwards
compatibility with previously releases. The automatic loading feature is
compiled into the beforementioned tools if MK_ISCSI == yes when building
world.
Add a manpage for cfiscsi(4) and refer to it in ctl(4).

man(1) has some logic to use two spaces after a full stop, which is
useful for spotting sentence breaks in monospace fonts. However,
this logic is very simple, treating almost all '.' characters as
end-of-sentence markers, unless followed by certain other
characters. For example, '.,' is not end-of-sentence, and neither
is ".) ", but ".)" at the end of a line triggers the sentence-end
detection.
Apply a zero-width space to a few instances of this in share/man,
and also supply a missing full stop for an instance that occurred at
the end of a sentence.
Leave untouched several instances that are at the end of a sentence
or list element.

Add a clock_nanosleep() syscall, as specified by POSIX.
Make nanosleep() a wrapper around it.
Attach the clock_nanosleep test from NetBSD. Adjust it for the
FreeBSD behavior of updating rmtp only when interrupted by a signal.
I believe this to be POSIX-compliant, since POSIX mentions the rmtp
parameter only in the paragraph about EINTR. This is also what
Linux does. (NetBSD updates rmtp unconditionally.)
Copy the whole nanosleep.2 man page from NetBSD because it is complete
and closely resembles the POSIX description. Edit, polish, and reword it
a bit, being sure to keep any relevant text from the FreeBSD page.

I moved this branch from github to a private server, and pulled from the
wrong one when committing r315280, so I failed to include two recent commits.
Thankfully, they were only cosmetic and were included in the review.
Specifically:
Add documentation, polish comments, and improve style(9).
