12dacf622b Make sys_signame upper case.
This matches the constants from <signal.h> with 'SIG' removed, which POSIX
requires kill and trap to accept and 'kill -l' to write.

'kill -l', 'trap', 'trap -l' output is now upper case.

In Turkish locales, signal names with an upper case 'I' are now accepted,
while signal names with a lower case 'i' are no longer accepted, and the
output of 'killall -l' now contains proper capital 'I' without dot instead
of a dotted capital 'I'.

0a62a9caa9 sh: Add kill builtin.
This allows specifying a %job (which is equivalent to the corresponding
process group).

Additionally, it improves reliability of kill from sh in high-load
situations and ensures "kill" finds the correct utility regardless of PATH,
as required by POSIX (unless the undocumented %builtin mechanism is used).

Side effect: fatal errors (any error other than kill(2) failure) now return
exit status 2 instead of 1. (This is consistent with other sh builtins, but
not in NetBSD.)

Code size increases about 1K on i386.

9e7839f632 kill: Stop processing if a syntactically invalid pid is encountered.
So a command like
  kill _HUP 1
now fails without sending SIGTERM to init.

The behaviour when kill(2) fails remains unchanged: processing continues.
This matches other implementations and POSIX and is useful for killing
multiple processes at once when some of them may already be gone.

c67ea27d10 Do not restrict the allowed signals that can be specified by number
to the list of signals that has symbolic name. It was impossible to
send rt signals with kill(1) due to the check.

c644db6aa2 Improve shell documentation:
* Consistently misspell built-in as builtin.

* Add a builtin(1) manpage and create builtin(1) MLINKS for all shell
  builtin commands for which no standalone utility exists.  These MLINKS
  replace those that were created for csh(1).

* Add appropriate xrefs for builtin(1) to the csh(1) and sh(1) manpages,
  as well as to the manpages of standalone utilities which are supported
  as shell builtin commands in at least one of the shells. In such
  manpages, explain that similar functionality may be provided as a
  shell builtin command.

* Improve sh(1)'s description of the cd builtin command. Csh(1) already
  describes it adequately. Replace the cd(1) manpage with a builtin(1)
  MLINKS link.

* Clean up some mdoc problems: use Xr instead of literal "foo(n)"; use
  Ic instead of Xr for shell builtin commands.

* Undo English contractions.
