2822c33f8c This change does the following for the scripts that run up through
FILESYSTEMS (the default early_late_divider):
1. Move sysctl to run first
2. Move as many BEFOREs to REQUIREs as possible.
3. Minor effect, move hostid_save from right before mdconfig to right
   after.

A lot of the early scripts make use of sysctl one way or another so
running this first makes a lot of sense given that system-critical
values are often placed in sysctl.conf.

My original purpose for working on this was that while doing some
debugging on other stuff I noticed that the order of execution was
different in the first pass through the early scripts and the second.
In practice that doesn't matter because the scripts are not executed the
second time. However this _can_ result in problems if the difference in
the rcorder moves a script from the late section to the early section in
the second pass (which would mean the script would not get executed).
So, I wanted to make the order of execution of the scripts in the early
section more deterministic.

In the course of debugging the ordering problems I noticed that moving
the BEFOREs to REQUIREs prevented the changes in order from the first
pass to the second pass without having to make any substantial changes.
(Of course it's no secret that I think BEFORE should be avoided as much
as possible, but this is a good example of why.)

d5d7e76d2b Currently there is a problem with fscking UFS file systems created on
top of ZVOLs. The problem is that rc.d/fsck runs before rc.d/zfs. The
latter makes ZVOLs to appear in /dev/. In such case rc.d/fsck cannot
find devfs entry and aborts. We cannot simply move rc.d/zfs before
rc.d/fsck, because we first want kern.hostid to be configured (by
rc.d/hostid). If we won't wait (hostid will be 0) we can reuse disks
which are in use by different systems (eg. in SAN/NAS environment).
We also cannot move rc.d/hostid before rc.d/fsck, because rc.d/hostid on
first system start stores generated kern.hostuuid in /etc/hostid file,
so it needs root file system to be mounted read-write.

The fix is to split rc.d/hostid so that rc.d/hostid (which will now run
before rc.d/fsck) only generates hostid and sets up sysctls, but doesn't
touch root file system and rc.d/hostid_save (which is run after
rc.d/root) and only creates /etc/hostid file.

With that in place, we can move ZVOL initialization to dedicated
rc.d/zvol script which runs before rc.d/fsck.
