man(1) has some logic to use two spaces after a full stop, which is
useful for spotting sentence breaks in monospace fonts. However,
this logic is very simple, treating almost all '.' characters as
end-of-sentence markers, unless followed by certain other
characters. For example, '.,' is not end-of-sentence, and neither
is ".) ", but ".)" at the end of a line triggers the sentence-end
detection.
Apply a zero-width space to a few instances of this in share/man,
and also supply a missing full stop for an instance that occurred at
the end of a sentence.
Leave untouched several instances that are at the end of a sentence
or list element.

I moved this branch from github to a private server, and pulled from the
wrong one when committing r315280, so I failed to include two recent commits.
Thankfully, they were only cosmetic and were included in the review.
Specifically:
Add documentation, polish comments, and improve style(9).

sbuf_hexdump(9) should be linked to sbuf(9), not hexdump(3). Another

to stdout in the non-kernel case and to the console+log
in the kernel case. For the kernel case it hooks the
putbuf() machinery underneath printf(9) so that the buffer
is written completely atomically and without a copy into
another temporary buffer. This is useful for fixing
compound console/log messages that become broken and
interleaved when multiple threads are competing for the
console.

EISA and VME as examples in bus_space.9.
Retained EISA mode code for IO PIC and MPTABLES because that's not
EISA bus, per se, and some people have abused EISA to mean "EISA-like
behavior as opposed to ISA" rather than using it for EISA add-in
cards.

Replace archaic "busses" with modern form "buses."
Intentionally excluded:

* Use of "busses" in code as identifiers

I'm currently working on writing a metrics exporter for the Prometheus
monitoring system to provide access to sysctl metrics. Prometheus and
sysctl have some structural differences:
- sysctl is a tree of string component names.
- Prometheus uses a flat namespace for its metrics, but allows you to
attach labels with values to them, so that you can do aggregation.
An initial version of my exporter simply translated
hw.acpi.thermal.tz1.temperature
to
sysctl_hw_acpi_thermal_tz1_temperature_celcius
while we should ideally have
sysctl_hw_acpi_thermal_temperature_celcius{thermal_zone="tz1"}
allowing you to graph all thermal zones on a system in one go.
The change presented in this commit adds support for accomplishing this,
by providing the ability to attach labels to nodes. In the example I
gave above, the label "thermal_zone" would be attached to "tz1". As this
is a feature that will only be used very rarely, I decided to not change
the KPI too aggressively.

function from restarting the timer.
Commonly taskqueue_enqueue_timeout() is called from within the task
function itself without any checks for teardown. Then it can happen
the timer stays active after the return of taskqueue_drain_timeout(),
because the timeout and task is drained separately.
This patch factors out the teardown flag into the timeout task itself,
allowing existing code to stay as-is instead of applying a teardown
flag to each and every of the timeout task consumers.
Add assert to taskqueue_drain_timeout() which prevents parallel
execution on the same timeout task.
Update manual page documenting the return value of
taskqueue_enqueue_timeout().
