like this can be emulated by VT_SETMODEing to VT_PROCESS and never
releasing the vty, but this has a number of problems, most notably
that a process must stay resident for the lock to be in effect.

call read() to get the next command, and scread() disables the
screensaver. We don't want this behaviour in the sc_saver_keybonly
case.

hw.syscons.saver.keybonly: used to specify that only input is to
interrupt the screensaver. This allows one to run a chatty console
app but still have the screen blank out until a key is pressed.
There should probably also be an ioctl for this, we'll do that later.
hw.syscons.saver.blanktime: exports the screensaver timeout via sysctl.

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

- Now that apm loadable module can inform its existence to other kernel
components (e.g. i386/isa/clock.c:startrtclock()'s TCS hack).
- Exchange priority of SI_SUB_CPU and SI_SUB_KLD for above purpose.
- Add simple arbitration mechanism for APM vs. ACPI. This prevents
the kernel enables both of them.
- Remove obsolete `#ifdef DEV_APM' related code.
- Add abstracted interface for Powermanagement operations. Public apm(4)
functions, such as apm_suspend(), should be replaced new interfaces.
Currently only power_pm_suspend (successor of apm_suspend) is implemented.

make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

- When both SC_PIXEL_MODE and SC_NO_FONT_LOADING are defined,
quietly drop SC_NO_FONT_LOADING, because the pixel(raster)
console requires font.
- When SC_NO_FONT_LOADING is defined, force SC_ALT_MOUSE_IMAGE.
Without font, the arrow-shaped mouse cursor cannot be drawn.
- Fiddle and simplify some internal macros.

SC_DEV isn't NULL; if it is, evaluate to NULL and don't dereference
NULL. Callers of VIRTUAL_TTY must already check for the result being
NULL since si_tty can be NULL, so this should be safe.
This fixes a panic when trying to switch to a different vty in an
environment such as userconfig (-c option to the kernel).
