- mount(8) now calls the nmount(2) system call directly, not mount(2)
- specifying a filesystem type with -t will not automatically
invoke an external /sbin/mount_XXXX program....this only happens for
certain file system types. For all other file system types, nmount(2)
is called directly.
system is mounted. This prevevents duplicated mounts.
The change I made against the original patch is to fall back to the given
path on realpath(2) failure instead of exiting with an error.

- Add build_iovec_argf() helper function, for help converting old
mount options which used the mount_argf() function for the mount() syscall.
Discussed with: phk
- Teach the mount program to call the nmount() syscall directly
- Preserve existing method of calling mount() for UFS, until we clean things
up.
- Preserve existing method of forking and calling external mount programs for
mfs, msdosfs, nfs, nfs4, ntfs, nwfs, nullfs, portalfs, reiserfs, smbfs,
udf, umapfs, unionfs
- devfs, linprocfs, procfs, ext2fs call nmount() syscall directly, since
that is all those external mount programs were doing

use of the macro in sbin/mount*'s, by replacing:
mopts[] = {
MOPT_STDOPTS,
{ NULL }
}
With:
mopts[] = {
MOPT_STDOPTS,
MOPT_NULL
}
This change will help to reduce the situation that we don't explicitly
initialize "struct mntopt"'s. It should not contribute to any
functional/logical changes as far as I can tell.
This unbreaks "/rescue/mount -t foo" -- previously it was necessary to
explicitly call "/rescue/mount_foo".

libufs, which only works for Charlie root.
This change reverts the introduction of libufs and moves the
check into the kernel. Since the f_fstypename is the same
for both ufs and ufs2, we check fs_magic for presence of
ufs2 and copy "ufs2" explicitly instead.

MAC support on the file system, if supported, which causes MAC to treat
each object as having its own label, rather than using a single label
for all objects on the file system. This doesn't have to be used in
combination with the tunefs/newfs flags -- it's an alternative.
in those cases:
1. File system was mounted by an unprivileged user.
2. File system was mounted by an unprivileged root user.
3. File system was mounted by a privileged non-root user.
Point 1 is when file system was mounted by unprivileged user
(sysctl vfs.usermount was equal to 1 then).
Point 2 is when file system was mounted by root, while sysctl
security.bsd.suser_enabled is set to 0 and sysctl vfs.usermount
is set to 1.
Point 3 is because we want to be ready for capabilities.
