fbbd9655e5 Renumber copyright clause 4
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

3cb73e3d8b Teach the loopback interface about checksum generation and validation
avoidance:

- Enable setting the RXCSUM and TXCSUM flags for loopback interfaces;
  set both by default.
- When RXCSUM is set, flag packets sent over the loopback interface as
  having checked and valid IP, UDP, TCP checksums so that higher
  protocol layers won't check them.
- Always clear CSUM_{IP,UDP_TCP} checksum required flags on transmit,
  as they will have gotten there as a result of TXCSUM being set.

This is done only for packets explicitly sent over the loopback, not
simulated loopback via if_simloop() due to !SIMPLEX interfaces, etc.

Note that enabling TXCSUM but not RXCSUM will lead to unhappiness, as
checksums won't be generated but will be validated.

Kris reports that this leads to significant performance improvements
in loopback benchmarking with TCP and UDP for throughput:

	RXCSUM 	RXCSUM+TXCSUM
TCP	15%	37%
UDP	10%	74%

Update man page.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
