"live" case (i.e. when not using iostat on a crash dump).
Remove setgid kmem for the iostat executable, it is not needed any
more after these changes.

1.) prefix all functions in the library with devstat_ (compatability
functions are available for all functions that were chaned in an
incompatible way, but are deprecated).
2.) Add a pointer to a kvm_t as the first argument to functions that
used to get their information via sysctl; they behave the same
as before when NULL is passed as this argument, otherwise, the
information is obtained via libkvm using the supplied handle.
3.) Add a new function, devstat_compute_statistics(), that is intended
to replace the old compute_stats() function. It offers more
statistics data, and has a more flexible interface.
libdevstat does now require libkvm; a library depedency is added, so
that libkvm only needs to be explicitely specified for statically linked
programs.
The library major version number is bumped.

bind() call on IPv4 sockets:
Currently, if one tries to bind a socket using INADDR_LOOPBACK inside a
jail, it will fail because prison_ip() does not take this possibility
into account. On the other hand, when one tries to connect(), for
example, to localhost, prison_remote_ip() will silently convert
INADDR_LOOPBACK to the jail's IP address. Therefore, it is desirable to
make bind() to do this implicit conversion as well.
Apart from this, the patch also replaces 0x7f000001 in
prison_remote_ip() to a more correct INADDR_LOOPBACK.
This is a 4.4-RELEASE "during the freeze, thanks" MFC candidate.

and so special-casing was introduced to provide extra procfs privilege
to the kmem group. With the advent of non-setgid kmem ps, this code
is no longer required, and in fact, can is potentially harmful as it
allocates privilege to a gid that is increasingly less meaningful.
Knowledge of specific gid's in kernel is also generally bad precedent,
as the kernel security policy doesn't distinguish gid's specifically,
only uid 0.
This commit removes reference to kmem in procfs, both in terms of
access control decisions, and the applying of gid kmem to the
/proc/*/mem file, simplifying the associated code considerably.
Processes are still permitted to access the mem file based on
the debugging policy, so ps -e still works fine for normal
processes and use.
