The goal here is to make it so applications can take the rights one would
normally get by calling caph_limit_stream() on a descriptor and build on
them as needed.
The tentatively planned use-case is an application that takes a socket and
hooks it up to std{err,out,in} for a fork()d child. It may be feasible to
apply limitations to such descriptors as long as it's a superset of those
normally applied to stdio.

The default package use to be FreeBSD-runtime but it should only contain
binaries and libs enough to boot to single user and repair the system, it
is also very handy to have a package that can be tranform to a small mfsroot.
So create a new package named FreeBSD-utilities and make it the default one.
Also move a few binaries and lib into this package when it make sense.

The idea behind those functions is not to force consumers to remember that there
is a need to check errno on failure. We already have a caph_enter(3) function
which does the same for cap_enter(2).
