o revised channel handling support; ifconfig now queries the kernel to
find the list of available channels and handles channel promotion;
channel attributes can be specified as part of the channel; e.g. 36:a
for channel 36 in 11a (as opposed to turbo A or HT A)
o use channel list to map between freq and IEEE channel #; this eliminates
all knowledge of how the mapping is done and fixes handling of cases
where channels overlap in the IEEE channel # space but are distinct in
the frequency+attributes space (e.g. PSB)
o add new knobs: bgscan, ff (Atheors fast frames), dturbo (Atheros
Dynamic Turbo mode), bgscanidle, bgscanintvl, scanvalid, roam:rssi11a,
roam:rssi11b, roam:rssi11g, roam:rate11a, roam:rate11b, roam:rate11g
(roaming parameters), burst, doth (forthcoming 11h support)
o print contents of WME, ATH, WPA, RSN, information elements with -v option
o print signal strength in dBm
o print noise floor in dBm
o add list txpow to print tx power caps/channel
o change default channel display in status to be more informative
value into a variable of the right type and then printing it via
an intmax_t. This makes avoids some duplication and makes it easy
to add a new integer format Q for printing things of type CTLTYPE_QUAD.

previous commit and that introduced optional parameters.
Existing classes (like geli(8)) use empty strings by default
and expect the parameter to be passed to the kernel as such.
Also, the default value of a string argument can be NULL.
Fix both cases by making the optional parameter conditional
upon gc_argname being set and making sure to test for NULL
before dereferencing the pointer.

In order to support gpart(8), geom(8) needs to support a named
argument. Also, optional string parameters are a requirement.
Both have been added to the infrastructure. The former required
all existing classes to be adjusted.

Rationale:
We are interested in the current (last) element of the argv array
there, not in its first element. The if construct is there because
we want to avoid adding empty (zero-length) arguments to argv, so
we just don't advance argvp if the current argument is empty, and
it gets overwritten at the next iteration. Note that strsep(3)
doesn't treat consecutive delim characters as a single separator,
it returns empty fields between such characters, and it's up to the
caller to handle them this or that way.
Also add a comment that the argv array ends up null-terminated in
any case (it's due to the design of the for loop) as an answer to
a possible question why the whole argv isn't zero-filled.

vs 4), supress all unused partition output unless -v is specified.
This makes operating on a 'typical' disk with one partition less
painful. The 30 lines needed for the empty partitions no longer
scroll the useful information off the screen. When the user requests
a specific partition, the unused information is not suppressed.
Also add the partition name to the -s output.
Initialize the partition name to 'FreeBSD' when -I is specified.
1. The static buffer that ping6(8) uses to hold the control data
it gets from recvmsg(2) is too small in some cases.
2. When it prints the extra header information it doesn't do
any checking to make sure the data it's printing is within
the bounds of the supplied buffer.
Fix this by:
o Increasing the buffer to hold extra headers to 10240 bytes (the minimum
according to RFC3542 sec. 20.1) and allocate it dynamically.
o In verbose mode, specify a warning if any control data from recvmsg(2)
was truncated because the buffer was too small.
o When printing the extra headers make sure not to overrun the buffer
boundaries.

The name trunk is misused as the networking term trunk means carrying multiple
VLANs over a single connection. The IEEE standard for link aggregation (802.3
section 3) does not talk about 'trunk' at all while it is used throughout IEEE
802.1Q in describing vlans.
The lagg(4) driver provides link aggregation, failover and fault tolerance.

one virtual interface using a number of different protocols/algorithms.
failover - Sends traffic through the secondary port if the master becomes
inactive.
fec - Supports Cisco Fast EtherChannel.
lacp - Supports the IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) and the Marker Protocol.
loadbalance - Static loadbalancing using an outgoing hash.
roundrobin - Distributes outgoing traffic using a round-robin scheduler
through all active ports.
