b7eb47e290 Add a new flag '-k' to ifconfig(8), indicating that it is alright to
print potentially sensitive keying material to stdout.  With the new
802.11 support, ifconfig(8) is now capable of printing 802.11 keys,
and did by default for the root user, which is undesirable in some
environments.  Now it will not print keying material unless requested
(and available to the user).

5faf8dcb55 Overhaul to cleanup some of the tangled logic that's grown over the years.
o break per-address family support out into separate files
o modularize per-address family and functional operations using
  a registration mechanism; this permits configuration according
  to which files you include (but beware that order of the files
  is important to insure backwards compatibility)
o many cleanups to eliminate incestuous behaviour, global variables,
  and poor coding practices (still much more to fix)

The original motivation of this work was to support dynamic addition
of functionality based on the interface so we can eliminate the various
little control programs and so that vendors can distribute ifconfig
plugins that support their in-kernel code.  That work is still to be
completed.

o Update 802.11 support for all the new net80211 functionality; some
  of these operations (e.g. list *) may be better suited in a different
  program

afbe3a0f81 Add the "Monitor" interface flag.
Setting this flag on an ethernet interface blocks transmission of packets
and discards incoming packets after BPF processing.

This is useful if you want to monitor network trafic but not interact
with the network in question.

ffb079be0c Implement user-setable promiscuous mode (a new `promisc' flag for ifconfig(8)).
Also, for all interfaces in this mode pass all ethernet frames to upper layer,
even those not addressed to our own MAC, which allows packets encapsulated
in those frames be processed with packet filters (ipfw(8) et al).
