Add an option to the way UFS works dependent on the SUID bit of directories
This changes makes things a whole lot simpler on systems running as
fileservers for PCs and MACS. to enable the new code you must
1/ enable option SUIDDIR on the kernel.
2/ mount the filesystem with option suiddir.
hopefully this makes it difficult enough for people to
do this accidentally.
see the new chmod(2) man page for detailed info.

Ever since I first say the way the mount flags were used I've hated the
fact that modes, and events, internal and exported, and short-term
and long term flags are all thrown together. Finally it's annoyed me enough..
This patch to the entire FreeBSD tree adds a second mount flag word
to the mount struct. it is not exported to userspace. I have moved
some of the non exported flags over to this word. this means that we now
have 8 free bits in the mount flags. There are another two that might
well move over, but which I'm not sure about.
The only user visible change would have been in pstat -v, except
that davidg has disabled it anyhow.
I'd still like to move the state flags and the 'command' flags
apart from each other.. e.g. MNT_FORCE really doesn't have the
same semantics as MNT_RDONLY, but that's left  for another day.

These changes add the ability to specify that a UFS file/directory
cannot be unlinked. This is basically a scaled back version
of the IMMUTABLE flag. The reason is to allow an administrator
to create a directory hierarchy that a group of users
can arbitrarily add/delete files from, but that the hierarchy
itself is safe from removal by them.
If the NOUNLINK definition is set to 0
then this results in no change to what happens normally.
(and results in identical binary (in the kernel)).
It can be proven that if this bit is never set by the admin,
no new behaviour is introduced..
Several "good idea" comments from reviewers plus one grumble
about creeping featurism.

This code is in production in 2.2 based systems

870039320f Changed all paths to be relative to src/lib instead of src/lib/libc
so that all these makefiles can be used to build libc_r too.

Added .if ${LIB} == "c" tests to restrict man page builds to libc
to avoid needlessly building them with libc_r too.

Split libc Makefile into Makefile and Makefile.inc to allow the
libc_r Makefile to include Makefile.inc too.

3d56ef8c48 Generate .S files for syscalls. This has many advantages:
- dependencies actually work (I need this to propagate some fixes
  in <machine/asm.h>)
- the cpp pipeline goes away, so errors can't leak out of it and
  an ANSI cpp is automatically used.
- it's simpler - standard rules get used instead of repetitive
  special rules.  (This showed bugs in the strip steps in the
  standard rules.  The wrong strip flag was also used for *.po
  here.)

Removed some ${ECHO}s and `@'s.  Normal make echoing of what is
being done is now not much more verbose than the echo messages
were, and is more useful.
