Note that due to e.g. write throttling ('wdrain'), it can stall all the disk
I/O instead of just the device it's configured for. Using it for removable
media is therefore not a good idea.

This allows to use numbers in human-readable form in many geom(8)
utilities. Such a simple change and makes live so much nicer.
Some examples:
gstripe label -s 16k
gmirror label -s 4k
gnop create -o 1g -s 128m -S 2k
gjournal label -s 2g
geli label -i 128k -s 4k

previous commit and that introduced optional parameters.
Existing classes (like geli(8)) use empty strings by default
and expect the parameter to be passed to the kernel as such.
Also, the default value of a string argument can be NULL.
Fix both cases by making the optional parameter conditional
upon gc_argname being set and making sure to test for NULL
before dereferencing the pointer.

In order to support gpart(8), geom(8) needs to support a named
argument. Also, optional string parameters are a requirement.
Both have been added to the infrastructure. The former required
all existing classes to be adjusted.
- Print proper error message when argument is specified twice.
Before the change it was detected properly, because of how
G_OPT_DONE() macro worked.
- Use err(3) functions where appropriate.
- Add some assertions.
- Bump version number, because G_TYPE_BOOL addition breaks API and ABI.

value (intmax_t) and boolean (int).
Based on that provide three functions:
- gctl_get_ascii()
- gctl_get_int()
- gctl_get_intmax()
- Hide gctl_get_param() function, as it is only used internally in
subr.c.
- Allow to provide argument name as (fmt, ...).
- Assert geom(8) bugs (missing argument is a geom(8) bug).
- Clean-up and simplify the code by using new functions and assumtions
(no more checking for missing argument).

ignore "no such file" errors only, which I wanted to do.
Because of this I ignored all other errors on dlopen(3) failure as well,
which isn't good.
Fix this situation by calling access(2) on library file first and ignore
only ENOENT error. This allows to report all the rest of dlopen(3) errors.

in class library.
- Bump version number as it breaks ABI, but don't provide backward
compatibility, because there are probably no external consumers of this
geom(8).
This allows to print more precise usage for standard commands and simplify
class libraries a bit.

This prevents from listing geoms like <name>.sync which can be confusing.
It still allows to show details about it by giving its name when listing.
