Previously, libc.so would initialize its notion of the break address
using _end, a special symbol emitted by the static linker following
the bss section. Compatibility issues between lld and ld.bfd could
cause the wrong definition of _end (libc.so's definition rather than
that of the executable) to be used, breaking the brk()/sbrk()
interface.
Avoid this problem and future interoperability issues by simply not
relying on _end. Instead, modify the break() system call to return
the kernel's view of the current break address, and have libc
initialize its state using an extra syscall upon the first use of the
interface. As a side effect, this appears to fix brk()/sbrk() usage
in executables run with rtld direct exec, since the kernel and libc.so
no longer maintain separate views of the process' break address.

This is required by programs like sockstat that read variably sized
sysctls such as kern.file. The normal path has no such restriction and
the restriction was added without comment along with initial support for
freebsd32 in 2002 (r100384).

Now a jail-enabled filesystem need only mark itself with VFCF_JAIL, and
the rest is taken care of. This includes adding a jail parameter like
allow.mount.foofs, and a sysctl like security.jail.mount_foofs_allowed.
Both of these used to be a static list of known filesystems, with
predefined permission bits.

opt_compat.h is mentioned in nearly 180 files. In-progress network
driver compabibility improvements may add over 100 more so this is
closer to "just about everywhere" than "only some files" per the
guidance in sys/conf/options.
Keep COMPAT_LINUX32 in opt_compat.h as it is confined to a subset of
sys/compat/linux/*.c. A fake _COMPAT_LINUX option ensure opt_compat.h
is created on all architectures.
Move COMPAT_LINUXKPI to opt_dontuse.h as it is only used to control the
set of compiled files.

It is random collection of fixes for issues not yet corrected,
reported at https://tsyrklevi.ch/clang_analyzer/freebsd_013017/. Many
issues from that list were already corrected. Most of them are for
compat32, old compat32 or affect both primary host ABI and compat32.
The freebsd32_kldstat(), for instance, was already fixed by using
malloc(M_ZERO). Patch includes correction to report the supplied
version back, which is just pedantic.
