Bring back the old size of the kinfo_file structure to preserve ABI.

Browse Source 
Keep only one uint64_t spare for further cap_rights_t expension.

Add a comment clarifying that if the size of this structure changes,
a new sysctl MIB has to be allocate for it and the old structure has
to be returned by the old sysctl MIB.
