dba9e9ccbf Add a basic man page for the sysctl(9) macro interfaces. Previously man 
pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces.  There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added
here.

Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.

8ba7a3578b - Sleep/wakeup operate on threads now, not processes. 
- Describe msleep() as the primary sleep function now rather than tsleep()
  and describe tsleep() and msleep_spin() as variations.
- Try to make the description of msleep() a bit closer to English
  (sentences with actual subjects, etc.)
- Document that a priority of 0 now prevents the thread's priority from
  being altered.
- Add a history note for wakeup_one().

847a2a1716 Add buffer corruption protection (RedZone) for kernel's malloc(9). 
It detects both: buffer underflows and buffer overflows bugs at runtime
(on free(9) and realloc(9)) and prints backtraces from where memory was
allocated and from where it was freed.

61d963bc57 - Don't list sleep() in the NAME section as we haven't had a sleep() 
function in years.
- Change the 'ident' paramters to 'wchan' to match <sys/systm.h>.
- Use 'otherwise' in place of 'else' in one place so that this reads like
  English rather than C.
- Document the new msleep_spin() function.
- Add history notes for msleep() and msleep_spin().
