6c8066b18b ddb: use 'textdump dump' instead of 'call doadump'
The change is for the example in textdump.4 and the default ddb.conf.

First of all, doadump now requires an argument and it won't do a
textdump if the argument is not 'true'.
And 'textdump dump' is more idiomatic anyway.

For what it's worth, ddb 'dump' command seems to always request a vmcore
dump even if a textdump was requested earlier, e.g., by 'textdump set'.
Finally, ddb 'call' command is not documented.

17ead000b5 Small textdump enhancements.
Allow textdumps to be called explicitly from DDB.

If "dump" is called in DDB and textdumps are enabled then abort the
dump and tell the user to turn off textdumps.

Add options TEXTDUMP_PREFERRED to turn textdumps on by default.
Add options TEXTDUMP_VERBOSE to be a bit more verbose while textdumping.
