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.

ad34cace15 Standardise chmod, chflags, chown and chgrp recursive symlink processing
chmod, chflags, chgrp, chmod and chown now affect symlinks in -R mode as
defined in symlink(7); previously symlinks were silently ignored.

7da1a731c6 Expand the use of stat(2) flags to allow storing some Windows/DOS
and CIFS file attributes as BSD stat(2) flags.

This work is intended to be compatible with ZFS, the Solaris CIFS
server's interaction with ZFS, somewhat compatible with MacOS X,
and of course compatible with Windows.

The Windows attributes that are implemented were chosen based on
the attributes that ZFS already supports.

The summary of the flags is as follows:

UF_SYSTEM:	Command line name: "system" or "usystem"
		ZFS name: XAT_SYSTEM, ZFS_SYSTEM
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM

		This flag means that the file is used by the
		operating system.  FreeBSD does not enforce any
		special handling when this flag is set.

UF_SPARSE:	Command line name: "sparse" or "usparse"
		ZFS name: XAT_SPARSE, ZFS_SPARSE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE

		This flag means that the file is sparse.  Although
		ZFS may modify this in some situations, there is
		not generally any special handling for this flag.

UF_OFFLINE:	Command line name: "offline" or "uoffline"
		ZFS name: XAT_OFFLINE, ZFS_OFFLINE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE

		This flag means that the file has been moved to
		offline storage.  FreeBSD does not have any special
		handling for this flag.

UF_REPARSE:	Command line name: "reparse" or "ureparse"
		ZFS name: XAT_REPARSE, ZFS_REPARSE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT

		This flag means that the file is a Windows reparse
		point.  ZFS has special handling code for reparse
		points, but we don't currently have the other
		supporting infrastructure for them.

UF_HIDDEN:	Command line name: "hidden" or "uhidden"
		ZFS name: XAT_HIDDEN, ZFS_HIDDEN
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN

		This flag means that the file may be excluded from
		a directory listing if the application honors it.
		FreeBSD has no special handling for this flag.

		The name and bit definition for UF_HIDDEN are
		identical to the definition in MacOS X.

UF_READONLY:	Command line name: "urdonly", "rdonly", "readonly"
		ZFS name: XAT_READONLY, ZFS_READONLY
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY

		This flag means that the file may not written or
		appended, but its attributes may be changed.

		ZFS currently enforces this flag, but Illumos
		developers have discussed disabling enforcement.

		The behavior of this flag is different than MacOS X.
		MacOS X uses UF_IMMUTABLE to represent the DOS
		readonly permission, but that flag has a stronger
		meaning than the semantics of DOS readonly permissions.

UF_ARCHIVE:	Command line name: "uarch", "uarchive"
		ZFS_NAME: XAT_ARCHIVE, ZFS_ARCHIVE
		Windows name: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE

		The UF_ARCHIVED flag means that the file has changed and
		needs to be archived.  The meaning is same as
		the Windows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE attribute, and
		the ZFS XAT_ARCHIVE and ZFS_ARCHIVE attribute.

		msdosfs and ZFS have special handling for this flag.
		i.e. they will set it when the file changes.

sys/param.h:		Bump __FreeBSD_version to 1000047 for the
			addition of new stat(2) flags.

chflags.1:		Document the new command line flag names
			(e.g. "system", "hidden") available to the
			user.

ls.1:			Reference chflags(1) for a list of file flags
			and their meanings.

strtofflags.c:		Implement the mapping between the new
			command line flag names and new stat(2)
			flags.

chflags.2:		Document all of the new stat(2) flags, and
			explain the intended behavior in a little
			more detail.  Explain how they map to
			Windows file attributes.

			Different filesystems behave differently
			with respect to flags, so warn the
			application developer to take care when
			using them.

zfs_vnops.c:		Add support for getting and setting the
			UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY, UF_SYSTEM, UF_HIDDEN,
			UF_REPARSE, UF_OFFLINE, and UF_SPARSE flags.

			All of these flags are implemented using
			attributes that ZFS already supports, so
			the on-disk format has not changed.

			ZFS currently doesn't allow setting the
			UF_REPARSE flag, and we don't really have
			the other infrastructure to support reparse
			points.

msdosfs_denode.c,
msdosfs_vnops.c:	Add support for getting and setting
			UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM and UF_READONLY
			in MSDOSFS.

			It supported SF_ARCHIVED, but this has been
			changed to be UF_ARCHIVE, which has the same
			semantics as the DOS archive attribute instead
			of inverse semantics like SF_ARCHIVED.

			After discussion with Bruce Evans, change
			several things in the msdosfs behavior:

			Use UF_READONLY to indicate whether a file
			is writeable instead of file permissions, but
			don't actually enforce it.

			Refuse to change attributes on the root
			directory, because it is special in FAT
			filesystems, but allow most other attribute
			changes on directories.

			Don't set the archive attribute on a directory
			when its modification time is updated.
			Windows and DOS don't set the archive attribute
			in that scenario, so we are now bug-for-bug
			compatible.

smbfs_node.c,
smbfs_vnops.c:		Add support for UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM,
			UF_READONLY and UF_ARCHIVE in SMBFS.

			This is similar to changes that Apple has
			made in their version of SMBFS (as of
			smb-583.8, posted on opensource.apple.com),
			but not quite the same.

			We map SMB_FA_READONLY to UF_READONLY,
			because UF_READONLY is intended to match
			the semantics of the DOS readonly flag.
			The MacOS X code maps both UF_IMMUTABLE
			and SF_IMMUTABLE to SMB_FA_READONLY, but
			the immutable flags have stronger meaning
			than the DOS readonly bit.

stat.h:			Add definitions for UF_SYSTEM, UF_SPARSE,
			UF_OFFLINE, UF_REPARSE, UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY
			and UF_HIDDEN.

			The definition of UF_HIDDEN is the same as
			the MacOS X definition.

			Add commented-out definitions of
			UF_COMPRESSED and UF_TRACKED.  They are
			defined in MacOS X (as of 10.8.2), but we
			do not implement them (yet).

ufs_vnops.c:		Add support for getting and setting
			UF_ARCHIVE, UF_HIDDEN, UF_OFFLINE, UF_READONLY,
			UF_REPARSE, UF_SPARSE, and UF_SYSTEM in UFS.
			Alphabetize the flags that are supported.

			These new flags are only stored, UFS does
			not take any action if the flag is set.

1b21ffa615 Make chflags(1) more chmod(1)-like (and more feature complete):
- Add -v to print file names as they are processed; -vv prints the flags
  change as well.
- Add -f to ignore failures with the same semantics as chflags(1), neither
  printing an error nor affecting the return code.
- Don't try to set the flags if they won't change.

I made minor cosmetic tweaks to the code in the patch.

7e81a15205 Add an interface to the lchflags(2) syscall. The new -h option is

which *do* exist in 5.x+ despite a claim to the contrary in the
chflags(1) man page.

These changes add the ability to specify that a UFS file/directory
cannot be unlinked. This is basically a scaled back version
of the IMMUTABLE flag. The reason is to allow an administrator
to create a directory hierarchy that a group of users
can arbitrarily add/delete files from, but that the hierarchy
itself is safe from removal by them.
If the NOUNLINK definition is set to 0
then this results in no change to what happens normally.
(and results in identical binary (in the kernel)).
It can be proven that if this bit is never set by the admin,
no new behaviour is introduced..
Several "good idea" comments from reviewers plus one grumble
about creeping featurism.

This code is in production in 2.2 based systems
