05b2fd309f Add a -P option to allow skipping newfs when using a vnode-backed
disk. Apparently some people want to use mdmfs as mount_* as a
shortcut for mounting existing file-based file systems.

Note that unlike in the patches from the submitters, this option is
not available in compat mode. Compat mode was supposed to support only
things that mount_mfs used to support. To use this option from fstab,
mdmfs should be called mount_md, not mount_mfs. This distinction has
not always upkept for new options, and those can't be fixed now
without breaking people's systems, but new options should not usually
be allowed in compat mode. (Not sure why -F is allowed there at all.)

1d3170aa53 Add a "-l" parameter to mdmfs so that memory file systems can be
created with the multilabel flag from inception.  This simply
passes the "-l" flag on to newfs(8).

ce03e3a7bd Don't reinvent the wheel: Use setmode(3) to interpret
a file mode specification from the command line.  This
approach is more flexible and less error-prone than using
a mere strtoul(3).

622448fa77 Teach mdmfs how to pass UFS version numbers through to newfs. Because
of an argument name collision with -O, use -v, and default to whatever
the newfs default is for the platform (generally, UFS1).  This is
required to support diskless workstations that use UFS2 for their
mdmfs file systems.

2dc4ac06ce Enable bug-for-bug compatibility with mount_mfs when the program
name is "mount_mfs" or "mfs". Previously, the condition was that
the program name must start with "mount_", but this both missed
the case where mount(8) invokes mdmfs with argv[0] = "mfs", and it
included cases such as "mount_md" where compatibility is not
required.

f7acb7e404 Implement a better compatibility mode with mount_mfs. It is the
default if the executable is named (called as) "mount_*", or can be
enabled with the -C option.  This allows users to leave their old
fstab entires unchanged (modulo symlink'ing mdmfs to mount(md|mfs))
and have things behave the way they should (by emulating mount_mfs
silliness), while still allowing mdmfs to be used as a generic
make-an-md-and-mount-it type thing.

Right now, the only effects of this option is to set the mount-point
mode to 01777 as if "-p 1777" was given, and to complain about getting
command-line options that mount_mfs didn't take (e.g., -X, -L, et al).
The latter is mostly to try to catch operator errors.

Also implement -U, which turns on soft-updates.  It's redundant (since
softdep is the default), but implement it anyway for compatibility.

4d7de91f9e Introduce mdmfs(8), a wrapper around mdconfig(8), disklabel(8),
newfs(8), and mount(8) that mimics the command line option set of the
deprecated mount_mfs(8).
