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
analogous to chmod(1)'s -h. It allows setting flags on symbolic links,
which *do* exist in 5.x+ despite a claim to the contrary in the
chflags(1) man page.

9f5b04e925 Style improvements recommended by Bruce as a follow up to some
of the recent WARNS commits. The idea is:

1) FreeBSD id tags should follow vendor tags.
2) Vendor tags should not be compiled (though copyrights probably should).
3) There should be no blank line between including cdefs and __FBSDIF.

subsection, third paragraph:

: It is important to realize that this rule includes commands which may

: included in this rule, while the command ``chown -R file'' is not.

For chown(8) and chgrp(1), this is also is compliance with the latest
POSIX 1003.1-200x draft.

508424d139 Fixed prototype for setflags(). setflags() returns int, not u_long,

alphas.

418d67b0d9 Revert part of the last commit, remove {g|s}etflags from the libc
interface, and statically link them to the programs using them.
These functions, upon reflection and discussion, are too generically
named for a library interface with such specific functionality.
Also the api that they use, whilst ok for private use, isn't good
enough for a libc function.

Additionally there were complications with the build/install-world
process.  It depends heavily upon xinstall, which got broken by
the change in api, and caused bootstrap problems and general mayhem.

There is work in progress to address future problems that may be
caused by changes in install-chain tools, and better names for
{g|s}etflags can be derived when some future program requires them.
For now the code has been left in src/lib/libc/gen (it started off
in src/bin/ls).

It's important to provide library functions for manipulating file
flag strings if we ever want this interface to be adopted outside
of the source tree, but now isn't necessarily the right moment
with 4.0-release just around the corner.

18c0eeddf7 Historically file flags (schg, uschg, etc) have been converted from
string to u_long and back using two functions, flags_to_string and
string_to_flags, which co-existed with 'ls'.  As time has progressed
more and more other tools have used these private functions to
manipulate the file flags.

Recently I moved these functions from /usr/src/bin/ls to libutil,
but after some discussion with bde it's been decided that they
really ought to go in libc.

There are two already existing libc functions for manipulating file
modes:  setmode and getmode.  In keeping with these flags_to_string
has been renamed getflags and string_to_flags to setflags.

The manual page could probably be improved upon ;)

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
