markj	1c1781ccce	Ensure that libnv can be used when kern.trap_enotcap=1. libnv used fcntl(fd, F_GETFL) to test whether fd is a valid file descriptor. Aside from being racy, this check requires CAP_FCNTL rights on fd. Instead, use fcntl(fd, F_GETFD), which does not require any capability rights. Also remove some redundant fd_is_valid() checks to avoid extra system calls; in many cases we were performing this check immediately before dup()ing the descriptor.

Ensure that libnv can be used when kern.trap_enotcap=1.

libnv used fcntl(fd, F_GETFL) to test whether fd is a valid file
descriptor.  Aside from being racy, this check requires CAP_FCNTL
rights on fd.  Instead, use fcntl(fd, F_GETFD), which does not require
any capability rights.

Also remove some redundant fd_is_valid() checks to avoid extra system
calls; in many cases we were performing this check immediately before
dup()ing the descriptor.

lib: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

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.

- NV_TYPE_NUMBER - 64bit unsigned integer;
- NV_TYPE_STRING - C string;
- NV_TYPE_NVLIST - nested nvlist;
- NV_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR - file descriptor;
- NV_TYPE_BINARY - binary data.
