3bfc89fbb2 Drop the default running value to 60% from 80%. Testing shows that we
cycle too much, wasting power if we trigger a jump to full speed too
easily.  CPU-bound tasks quickly push idle below this level.

a3f1ddca31 Add support for recording the total energy used (in joules) when in
verbose mode.  This is useful for profiling new adaptive algorithms
in performance (via time(1)) and total energy consumed for a given
workload.

ec79b216a6 Move the AC line checking code into its own function, reducing the
ifdef __i386__ stuff for APM.  Tested as working correctly on i386 and
compile-tested on sparc64.

aa305f93fa Unbreak !i386 platforms. Only i386 has APM, so don't try to fallback
on APM on other platforms.

80e6d656b9 Change the default levels for adaptive mode to 80% and 90%. On a system
with moderate IO going on, system usage can hover around 65-77% even
though it would benefit from higher performance.  Typically, only truly
idle systems pass the 90% mark so only demote then.

0b00d0e028 Import powerd(8), a utility for managing power consumption. Currently, it
just uses cpufreq(4) but in the future it should also do things like spin
down disks.  This is based on the work by Colin Percival (called "estctrl").
