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

870039320f Changed all paths to be relative to src/lib instead of src/lib/libc 
so that all these makefiles can be used to build libc_r too.

Added .if ${LIB} == "c" tests to restrict man page builds to libc
to avoid needlessly building them with libc_r too.

Split libc Makefile into Makefile and Makefile.inc to allow the
libc_r Makefile to include Makefile.inc too.

3d56ef8c48 Generate .S files for syscalls. This has many advantages: 
- dependencies actually work (I need this to propagate some fixes
  in <machine/asm.h>)
- the cpp pipeline goes away, so errors can't leak out of it and
  an ANSI cpp is automatically used.
- it's simpler - standard rules get used instead of repetitive
  special rules.  (This showed bugs in the strip steps in the
  standard rules.  The wrong strip flag was also used for *.po
  here.)

Removed some ${ECHO}s and `@'s.  Normal make echoing of what is
being done is now not much more verbose than the echo messages
were, and is more useful.

7bdf80e571 Correctly use .Fn instead of .Nm to reference function names 
in a bunch of man pages.

instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
