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.

We have locale files generated on EL machines (e.g. during cross-build
on amd64 host), but then we are using them on EB machines (e.g. MIPS64EB),
so proceed byte-swap if necessary.
All the libc tests passed successfully, including Russian collation.

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.

Summary:
The Freescale e500v2 PowerPC core does not use a standard FPU.
Instead, it uses a Signal Processing Engine (SPE)--a DSP-style vector processor
unit, which doubles as a FPU. The PowerPC SPE ABI is incompatible with the
stock powerpc ABI, so a new MACHINE_ARCH was created to deal with this.
Additionaly, the SPE opcodes overlap with Altivec, so these are mutually
exclusive. Taking advantage of this fact, a new file, powerpc/booke/spe.c, was
created with the same function set as in powerpc/powerpc/altivec.c, so it
becomes effectively a drop-in replacement. setjmp/longjmp were modified to save
the upper 32-bits of the now-64-bit GPRs (upper 32-bits are only accessible by
the SPE).
Note: This does _not_ support the SPE in the e500v1, as the e500v1 SPE does not
support double-precision floating point.
Also, without a new MACHINE_ARCH it would be impossible to provide binary
packages which utilize the SPE.
Additionally, no work has been done to support ports, work is needed for this.
This also means no newer gcc can yet be used. However, gcc's powerpc support
has been refactored which would make adding a powerpcspe-freebsd target very
easy.
Test Plan:
This was lightly tested on a RouterBoard RB800 and an AmigaOne A1222
(P1022-based) board, compiled against the new ABI. Base system utilities
(/bin/sh, /bin/ls, etc) still function appropriately, the system is able to boot
multiuser.

Back in 2015 when I reimplemented these functions to use an AVL tree, I
was annoyed by the weakness of the typing of these functions. Both tree
nodes and keys are represented by 'void *', meaning that things like the
documentation for these functions are an absolute train wreck.
To make things worse, users of these functions need to cast the return
value of tfind()/tsearch() from 'void *' to 'type_of_key **' in order to
access the key. Technically speaking such casts violate aliasing rules.
I've observed actual breakages as a result of this by enabling features
like LTO.
I've filed a bug report at the Austin Group. Looking at the way the bug
got resolved, they made a pretty good step in the right direction. A new
type 'posix_tnode' has been added to correspond to tree nodes. It is
still defined as 'void' for source-level compatibility, but in the very
far future it could be replaced by a proper structure type containing a
key pointer.

The sysctl cannot fail. If it does fail on some FreeBSD derivative or
after some future change, just abort() so that the problem will be found
and fixed.
While abort() is not normally suitable for a library, it makes sense
here.
This is akin to r306636 for arc4random.

The setkey() and encrypt() functions are part of XSI, not the POSIX base
definitions. There is no strict requirement for us to provide these,
especially if we're only going to keep these around as undocumented
stubs. The same holds for des_setkey() and des_cipher().
Instead of providing functions that only generate warnings when linking,
simply disallow linking against them. The impact of this is relatively
low. It only causes two leaf ports to break. I'll see what I can do to
help out to get those fixed.

It's preferable to provide an arc4random() function that cannot fail and
cannot return poor quality random data. While abort() is not normally
suitable for a library, it makes sense here.

It turns out that the path normalization that our brand new copy of
dirname(3) does is actually not allowed by the draft version of the
upcoming version of POSIX. It has to behave identically to the
dirname(1) utility.
This change replaces our new dirname(3) implementation by yet another
version that doesn't implement the path normalization logic; it merely
looks for the end of the directory name and overwrites that with a null
byte.
