Add a descrition to the tunefs(8) -j (journal enablement) flag
that explains what soft updates journaling does, the tradeoffs
to using it, and the limitations that it imposes.

Make sys/buf.h, sys/pipe.h, sys/fs/devfs/devfs*.h headers usable in
userspace, assuming that the consumer has an idea what it is for.
Unhide more material from sys/mount.h and sys/ufs/ufs/inode.h,
sys/ufs/ufs/ufsmount.h for consumption of userspace tools, with the
same caveat.
Remove unacceptable hack from usr.sbin/makefs which relied on sys/buf.h
being unusable in userspace, where it override struct buf with its own
definition. Instead, provide struct m_buf and struct m_vnode and adapt
code to use local variants.

The undocumented getino / putino interface has been replaced
with a new getinode / putinode interface.
Convert the utilities that had been using the undocumented

No functional change (as for now the libufs library does not

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

strlcpy(3) null terminates but does not zero-fill the buffer, so would
leave beind any portion of the previous volume label longer than the
new one.
Note that tunefs only allows -L args up to a length of MAXVOLLEN-1, so
the stored label will be null-terminated (whether or not required by
UFS).

running time for a full fsck. It also reduces the random access time
for large files and speeds the traversal time for directory tree walks.
The key idea is to reserve a small area in each cylinder group
immediately following the inode blocks for the use of metadata,
specifically indirect blocks and directory contents. The new policy
is to preferentially place metadata in the metadata area and
everything else in the blocks that follow the metadata area.
The size of this area can be set when creating a filesystem using
newfs(8) or changed in an existing filesystem using tunefs(8).
Both utilities use the `-k held-for-metadata-blocks' option to
specify the amount of space to be held for metadata blocks in each
cylinder group. By default, newfs(8) sets this area to half of
minfree (typically 4% of the data area).
This work was inspired by a paper presented at Usenix's FAST '13:

from looking a bit silly, it also triggers alarms from scripts
