32889325b8 Yes, NgRecvAsciiMsg has the same results as NgRecvAsciiMsg, but it's
much more apt to note that it has the same result as NgRecvMsg.  Make
the manual page less circular in its reference to this fact.

d15ff41778 - Added three new interfaces, NgAllocRecvMsg(), NgAllocRecvAsciiMsg(),
and NgAllocRecvData(), that dynamically allocate buffer for a binary
  message, an ascii message, and a data packet, respectively.  The size
  of the allocated buffer is equal to the socket's receive buffer size
  to guarantee that a message or a data packet is not truncated.

- Get rid of the static size buffer in NgSendAsciiMsg().

54e3311643 Use the new defines that include the trailing '\0' in the code.
Replace occurences of the magic constant 2 with an offsetof macro
call that computes the size of the leading members of the sockaddr.
Use strlcpy instead of sprintf where appropriate. Document the new changes
in the man page.

cb526d28ce Rename the DIAGNOSTICS section to RETURN VALUES and describe the
return values a little more.  Specifically, mention that a return
of 0 from NgRecvData() and NgRecvMsg() means the socket has been
closed.

specifically that 0 means the socket has been closed.

33c22c64e9 - Make sure the message token returned by NgSendMsg() is non-negative
- Have NgSendAsciiMsg() return the same token as NgSendMsg()
- Document that NgSendMsg() and NgSendAsciiMsg() return the token
- Add MLINKS for the functions defined in netgraph(3)

f8307e1233 Add two new generic control messages, NGM_ASCII2BINARY and
NGM_BINARY2ASCII, which convert control messages to ASCII and back.
This allows control messages to be sent and received in ASCII form
using ngctl(8), which makes ngctl a lot more useful.

This also allows all the type-specific debugging code in libnetgraph
to go away -- instead, we just ask the node itself to do the ASCII
translation for us.

Currently, all generic control messages are supported, as well as
messages associated with the following node types: async, cisco,
ksocket, and ppp.

See /usr/share/examples/netgraph/ngctl for an example of using this.

Also give ngctl(8) the ability to print out incoming data and
control messages at any time.  Eventually nghook(8) may be subsumed.

Several other misc. bug fixes.
