Allow users to specify multiple dump configurations in a prioritized list. This enables fallback to secondary device(s) if primary dump fails. E.g., one might configure a preference for netdump, but fallback to disk dump as a second choice if netdump is unavailable. This change does not list-ify netdump configuration, which is tracked separately from ordinary disk dumps internally; only one netdump configuration can be made at a time, for now. It also does not implement IPv6 netdump. savecore(8) is already capable of scanning and iterating multiple devices from /etc/fstab or passed on the command line. This change doesn't update the rc or loader variables 'dumpdev' in any way; it can still be set to configure a single dump device, and rc.d/savecore still uses it as a single device. Only dumpon(8) is updated to be able to configure the more complicated configurations for now. As part of revving the ABI, unify netdump and disk dump configuration ioctl / structure, and leave room for ipv6 netdump as a future possibility. Backwards-compatibility ioctls are added to smooth ABI transition, especially for developers who may not keep kernel and userspace perfectly synced.
