It allows one to trivially convert an absolute path to a relative path
and the reverse. The test programs themselves are very useful in scripts
but the real use comes shortly with the -r and -a arguments to ln.
These are sometimes known as the --relative and --absolute flags and
can force a symlink to be relative when you only have an absolue path.
Another place these are sometimes used is to add -a and -r args to 'realpath'.
Incredibly useful in Makefiles.
I was going to just add the files in with 'ln' but a library makes more sense.
The test programs may come out in their own right some day for scripting.

We return [EMLINK] instead of [ELOOP] when trying to open a symlink with
O_NOFOLLOW, so that the original case of [ELOOP] can be distinguished. Code
like cmp -h and xz takes advantage of this.

When wcstof() skipped initial space and then parsing failed, it set
endptr to the first non-space character. Fix it to correctly report
failure by setting endptr to the beginning of the input string.
The fix is from theraven@, who fixed this bug in wcstod() and
wcstold() in r227753.
While I'm here:
Move assignments out of declarations in wcstod() and wcstold().
This is against my personal preference, but it is our agreed style(9).
Set endptr correctly on malloc() failure in all three functions.
Remove an incorrect comment: This is pointer arithmetic,
so the code was not actually making that assumption.
wcstold() advanced the wcp pointer beyond leading whitespace
and then reset it back to the beginning of the string.
Do not reset it. This seems to have no functional effect,
since strtold_l() also skips leading whitespace. I'm making
the change to keep this function consistent with wcstof() and
wcstod(), and because the C11 spec prescribes the use of iswspace()
to skip leading space.

vmpage requires struct pmap to exist and contain a pm_stats field. As of
r308817, either AIM or BOOKE is required to be set in order to get their
respective pmap structs. Rather than expose them both, or try to unify them
unnecessarily, add a third option which contains only a pm_stats field, and
change the two existing pmap structures to place the common fields at the
beginning of the struct. This actually fixes the stats collection by libkvm on
AIM hardware, because before it was accessing a possibly different offset, which
would cause it to read garbage.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to denote this ABI change, so that ports which depend on
libkvm can be rebuilt.
r285050 fixed a bug in pw that could lead to /etc/passwd or /etc/group
corruption on power loss. However, it fixed it by opening those files with
O_SYNC, which is very slow, especially on ZFS. This change replaces O_SYNC
with appropriately placed fsync()s instead, which is much faster. Using a
ZFS tmpdir, the time to run pw's kyua tests drops from 245s to 35s.

This change does modify devsw dv_print() to return the int value,
enabling walkers to interrupt the walk on non zero value from dv_print().
This will allow the pager_print actually to stop displaying data on
user input, and additionally pager is used in various *dev_print callbacks,
where it was missing.
For test, lsdev [-v] command should display data by screenfuls and should
stop when the key 'q' is pressed on pager prompt.

Now that the changes to the dirname(3) function had some time to settle,
let's go ahead and use the same approach for replacing basename(3) by a
simple implementation that modifies the input string, thereby making it
thread-safe and guaranteed to succeed.
Unlike dirname(3), this function already had a thread-safe variant
basename_r(3). This function had its own set of problems, like having an
upper bound on the pathname length. Keep this function around for
compatibility, but remove most references from the man page. Make the
man page more similar to that of dirname(3).
As the basename_r(3) function is only provided by FreeBSD (and Bionic),
depending on its use is even more implementation defined than assuming
that basename(3) is thread-safe.

When an exception is thrown the unwinder must unwind its own C source
(starting with _Unwind_RaiseException in UnwindLevel1.c), so it needs to
be built with unwinding data.
Specifically, use .Ta instead of tabs to separate column entries. While
here fix a few other things:
- Use .Sy for all column headers (previously only the first column header
was bold)
- Use .Dv to markup constants used for MIB names.
- Use "1234" and "4321" for the byte order descriptions without
thousands separators.
- Mark up header files in the first table with .In.
