- Add optimizing LRO wrapper which pre-sorts all incoming packets
according to the hash type and flowid. This prevents exhaustion of
the LRO entries due to too many connections at the same time.
Testing using a larger number of higher bandwidth TCP connections
showed that the incoming ACK packet aggregation rate increased from
~1.3:1 to almost 3:1. Another test showed that for a number of TCP
connections greater than 16 per hardware receive ring, where 8 TCP
connections was the LRO active entry limit, there was a significant
improvement in throughput due to being able to fully aggregate more
than 8 TCP stream. For very few very high bandwidth TCP streams, the
optimizing LRO wrapper will add CPU usage instead of reducing CPU
usage. This is expected. Network drivers which want to use the
optimizing LRO wrapper needs to call "tcp_lro_queue_mbuf()" instead
of "tcp_lro_rx()" and "tcp_lro_flush_all()" instead of
"tcp_lro_flush()". Further the LRO control structure must be
initialized using "tcp_lro_init_args()" passing a non-zero number
into the "lro_mbufs" argument.
- Make LRO statistics 64-bit. Previously 32-bit integers were used for
statistics which can be prone to wrap-around. Fix this while at it
and update all SYSCTL's which expose LRO statistics.
- Ensure all data is freed when destroying a LRO control structures,
especially leftover LRO entries.
- Reduce number of memory allocations needed when setting up a LRO
control structure by precomputing the total amount of memory needed.
- Add own memory allocation counter for LRO.
- Bump the FreeBSD version to force recompilation of all KLDs due to
change of the LRO control structure size.

Prior to this patch, unless SSL_CA_CERT_FILE is set in the environment,
libfetch will set the CA file to "/usr/local/etc/cert.pem" if it exists,
and to "/etc/ssl/cert.pem" otherwise. This has the consequence of
masking SSL_CA_CERT_PATH, because OpenSSL will ignore the CA path if a CA
file is set but fails to load (see X509_STORE_load_locations()).
While here, fall back to OpenSSL defaults if neither SSL_CA_CERT_FILE nor
SSL_CA_CERT_PATH are set in the environment, and if neither of the
libfetch default CA files exists.

The dynamic config on Medford is stored using two partitions in flash, and at
any time one is the 'current' partition, used to provide the active config,
and the other 'backup' partition is used for writes. This means that there
are two potential partitions that can be used to service reads, and which is
required can depend on, for example, whether the read is to get the current
contents or to verify a write.
When the partition write lock is held, the default behaviour is to read from
the backup partition, which was wrong for most reads in the common code which
require the current partition. This change allows the current partition to be
read whilst the write lock is held.
There is one read in Manftest which needs the backup partition.
ef10_nvram_partn_read_mode() is created to avoid changing
ef10_nvram_partn_read() which shares a prototype with the equivalent Falcon
and Siena methods.
MC_CMD_NVRAM_READ_IN_V2 adds an extra field, but firmware which doesn't support
it just ignores it.

The standard bsd.lib.mk rule is suitable for libgcc_s's C++ source.
The local rule had the following non-functional argument differences
or additions:
1. -DSHARED (rather than -DPIC from bsd.lib.mk)
The C++ sources don't have an #ifdef for either one.
2. -fexceptions
This is enabled by default for C++ so does not need to be set
explicitly.
3. -D__GLIBC__=3
Not used by LLVM libunwind.
4. -DElfW=__ElfN
LLVM libunwind provides its own definition.

By confining the page table management to a handful of functions it'll be
easier to modify the page table scheme without affecting other functions.
This will be necessary when 64-bit support is added, and page tables become
much larger.
This API has no in-tree consumers at the moment but is useful to at least
one out-of-tree consumer, and naturally complements existing vnode refcount
functions (vholdl(9), vdropl(9)).

The rate table was being initialised in low->high, but the link quality
table was being initialised high->low. So, when we did a lookup, we
would get the indexes wrong.
This started by a patch from dragonflybsd which reversed how the ni->in_ridx[]
array is being used; I'd rather it all be consistent. So, this is consistent.
