IPv6 scoped addr display is not yet supported by ifconfig
and route. Now almost of IPv6 apps support it, so its support
in ifconfig and route is important to keep consisetncy, and
to avoid user confusion.

we're about to operate on, try to load one. Don't complain if the
load fails, and always press on regardless (there may not be a module
suitable or required).
With the renaming of the PCI ethernet driver modules and the addition
of appropriate miibus dependancies on those modules that need it, it is
now no longer necessary to compile many ethernet drivers into the kernel;
they will be loaded on demand the first time they are ifconfig'ed.

This is inteded for to allow ifconfig to print various unstructured
information from an interface.
The data is returned from the kernel in ASCII form, see the comment in
if.h for some technicalities.

Initial use:
Now tun* interfaces tell the PID of the process which opened them.
Future uses could be (volounteers welcome!):
Have ppp/slip interfaces tell which tty they use.
Make sync interfaces return their media state: red/yellow/blue
alarm, timeslot assignment and so on.
Make ethernets warn about missing heartbeats and/or cables
This means that the driver will add/delete routes when it knows it is
up/down, rather than have the generic code belive it is up if configured.
This is probably most useful for serial lines, although many PHY chips
could probably tell us if we're connected to the cable/hub as well.

no family was specified, even though the up/down status is not per family)

- parse command options using getopt for consistancy
- sanitise the command parsing so that it's less like spaghetti
- implement a "-l" option (idea from NetBSD - just list names)
- attempt to clean up the sysctl parsing loop some more. It still needs
to be taken out the back and shot though.
- cut down on global usage, but there's a lot more scope for this.
- make usage string a bit closer to reality (it was missing lots of things)
Unfortunately, I did this for the second time but with the memory of
the NetBSD version still recently in my mind. It's hard to redo simple
changes or getopt stuff without making it look like what you've been
working with a few hours ago.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been

beyond compiling the definition of struct ifinfo!) Also fix up some
other #include messes while we're at it.
- Don't link against libkvm and don't uselessly include <kvm.h>.
- Declare constant objects as const.
- Declare functions with the correct types.
- Call functions with the correct parameters.
Not fixed:
- The sysctl parsing remains ugly (but it may be the best we can do).
- atnetrange() should use strtoul() rather than sscanf() for better
error checking.
