libcam/Makefile: Add scsi_da.c to libcam for the new
scsi_format_unit() function.
camcontrol.8: Update the man page for the new format
functionality, and take out the examples section
describing how to do it with 'camcontrol cmd'.
camcontrol.c: New format functionality. Note that unlike the
rest of the camcontrol subcommands, this one is
interactive by default. Because of the potential
destructiveness of the format command, I thought
it necessary to get confirmation from the user
before spamming a disk. You can disable the
interactive behavior, and the status meter with
command line arguments.
scsi_da.c: Add the new scsi_format_unit() cdb building
function and use #ifdef _KERNEL to make this file
compile in both the kernel and userland. The
format unit function is currently only defined in
the non-kernel case, because nothing in the kernel
is using it. If that changes, it should be
un-ifdefed and compiled in both cases.
scsi_da.h: New function declaration, CDB structure and format
data structures.
Thanks to Nick Hibma for providing some valuable input on these changes.

camcontrol(8) and the documentation in camlib.c and cam(3) all expect
-1 on failure and 0 on success. Updated camlib.c to return the values
specified by the documentation.

most of the open/close routines, and the buffer/cdb parsing routines
derived from the old scsi(3) library.
The cam_cdbparse(3) man page borrows from the old scsi(3) man page, so the
copyright and history section reflect that.
The many scsi_* functions and other functions that are pulled in from the
kernel aren't documented yet, but will be eventually.
have the passthrough device configured in their kernel.
This will hopefully reduce the number of people complaining that they can't
get {camcontrol, xmcd, tosha, cdrecord, etc.} to work.

The functions that were being compiled into the library have been moved to
scsi_all.c.
One warning: Any programs using scsi_start_stop() or scsi_read_write()
that included scsi_da.h but not scsi_all.h will need to be
changed to include scsi_all.h. This doesn't affect
camcontrol, and I don't think it affects any ports, but you
never know.
