The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.
This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.
Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked
as MPSAFE before are by default marked as NEEDGIANT

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
directly accessed. Although this will work on some platforms, it can
throw an exception if the pointer is invalid and then panic the kernel.
Add a missing SYSCTL_IN() of "SCTP_BASE_STATS" structure.

introduced when feed-forward clock support is enabled in the kernel:
- Rename the "choice" variable to "available".
- Streamline the implementation of the "active" variable's sysctl handler
function.
- Create a kern.sysclock sysctl node for general sysclock related configuration
options. Place the "available" and "active" variables under this node.
- Create a kern.sysclock.ffclock sysctl node for feed-forward clock specific
configuration options. Place the "version" and "ffcounter_bypass" variables
under this node.
- Tweak some of the description strings.

system calls to provide feed-forward clock management capabilities to
userspace processes. ffclock_getcounter() returns the current value of the
kernel's feed-forward clock counter. ffclock_getestimate() returns the current
feed-forward clock parameter estimates and ffclock_setestimate() updates the
feed-forward clock parameter estimates.
- Document the syscalls in the ffclock.2 man page.
- Regenerate the script-derived syscall related files.

- Wrap [get]{bin,nano,micro}[up]time() functions of sys/time.h to allow
requesting time from either the feedback or the feed-forward clock. If a
feedback (e.g. ntpd) and feed-forward (e.g. radclock) daemon are both running
on the system, both kernel clocks are updated but only one serves time.
- Add similar wrappers for the feed-forward difference clock.

interval requested. Different flavours of absolute time can be requested, for
example with or without leap seconds, monotonic or not, etc.
