My change to allow bootstrapping pwd_mkdb (r363992) resulted in i386 build
failures because the bootstrap header was being included in non-bootstrap chpass.
Dropping the no longer required pwd_mkdb include path from chpass fixes
the build, but to be certain that the failure doesn't get re-introduced,
I've also moved the bootstrap pwd.h into a subdirectory so that adding
-I${SRCTOP}/usr.sbin/pwd_mkdb doesn't pull it in.

We need to provide a struct passwd that is compatible with the target
system and this is not the case when cross-building from macOS/Linux.
It should also be a problem when bootstrapping for an i386 target from a
FreeBSD amd64 host since time_t does not match across those systems.
However, pwd_mkdb always truncates integer values to 32-bit so this
difference does not result in different databases.

All of them are needed to be able to boot to single user and be able
to repair a existing FreeBSD installation so put them directly into
FreeBSD-runtime.

configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.
= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.

The character `#' introduces a comment. Leading spaces and tabs are
ignored: '^[ \t]*#.*\n$'
Count an empty line - only spaces, tabs or newline - also as a comment.
An empty line at the bottom of /etc/master.passwd is a common
novice error and increased my mail load: '^[ \t]*\n$'
