@cem removed references to pdwait4(2) (a nonexistent syscall) in
r320058.
This change removes references to pdwait4(2) and `CAP_PDWAIT` in
rights(4) to not mislead the user into thinking that pdwait4(2)/`CAP_PDWAIT` is
actually implemented in the stock FreeBSD kernel.
The goal of this functionality was to simplify monitoring/manipulating
processes started with `pdfork`, et al, and avoid races with waiting on pids.
The syscall was never completed though--just discussed on the capsicum mailing
list back in 2015:
https://lists.cam.ac.uk/pipermail/cl-capsicum-discuss/2015-May/msg00012.html
. That being said, there are members of the project (@rwatson, etc) who
have longterm goals to implement this syscall to better secure pdfork(2)
calls.

Previously it was possible to connect a socket (which had the
CAP_CONNECT right) by calling "connectat(AT_FDCWD, ...)" even in
capabilties mode. This combination should be treated the same as a call
to connect (i.e. forbidden in capabilities mode). Similarly for bindat.
Disable connectat/bindat with AT_FDCWD in capabilities mode, fix up the
documentation and add tests.

To make it easier to understand how Capsicum interacts with linkat() and
renameat(), rename the rights to CAP_{LINK,RENAME}AT_{SOURCE,TARGET}.
This also addresses a shortcoming in Capsicum, where it isn't possible
to disable linking to files stored in a directory. Creating hardlinks
essentially makes it possible to access files with additional rights.

The core kernel part is patch file utimes.2008.4.diff from
pluknet@FreeBSD.org. I updated the code for API changes, added the manual
page and added compatibility code for old kernels. There is also audit and
Capsicum support.
A new UTIME_* constant might allow setting birthtimes in future.
