26a0ee75c6 Introduce a force option, MD_FORCE, that instructs the driver to
bypass some extra anti-foot-shooting measures.  Currently, its only
effect is to allow detaching a device while it's still open (e.g.,
mounted).  This is useful for testing how the system reacts to a disk
suddenly going away, which can happen with some removeable media.

At this point, the force option is only checked on detach, so it
would've been possible to allow the option to be passed with the
MDIOCDETACH operation.  This was not done to allow the possibility of
having the force flag influence other tests in the future, which may
not necessarily deal with detaching the device.

e10469fef8 Make md(4) and mdconfig(8) take over the role of vn(4) and vnconfig(8)
entirely as previously advertised.

md(4) adopted all assets of vn(4) some time back and has proper devfs
support and cloning abilities to boot.

3b42f2f3bb Duh, the version of mdconfig.c I committed came from the wrong machine.
Commit the right version, but without the -b option which is too evil
for the present.

Remove -b and preload from the manpage as well.
