96265e088e Remove the printf builtin command from sh(1), which command is not
used so often that it's worth keeping it as a builtin.

Now that all the printf invocations from within the system startup
scripts, we can safely remove it.

Urged by:	sheldonh  :)

No MFC is planned so far because it may break compatibility and
violate POLA.

b58a3e4078 Make test(1) a builtin command of our sh(1) for efficiency. The
binary size increase is 3,784 bytes (about 0.6%).

I don't drop the printf builtin while I'm here because some /etc/rc.*
scripts seem to use it before mounting /usr where printf(1) resides.

511e378b14 Removed whitespace at end-of-line; no content changes. I simply did
cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...

8226df019a Update the builtin(1) manpage to reflect changes since the csh(1)
to tcsh(1) upgrade.  The following commands were added as builtins:

	bindkey

	echotc
	filetest
	hup
	log
	ls-F
	printenv
	sched
	settc
	setty
	telltc
	uncomplete

The printf builtin was removed.

e866411f10 Remove the bogusly inserted ``cwd'' which isn't a builtin command
to sh, csh nor tcsh.

Fix the header line of the table to use cross-references and
emphasis.

d003c4a860 Correct some hard sentence breaks. Only those surrounding the previous
commit and those which cause ugly nroff output have been fixed, since
the purpose of the style guideline which they contravene is to reduce
the sizes of deltas.

4000b20086 Improve shell documentation:
* Consistently misspell built-in as builtin.

* Add a builtin(1) manpage and create builtin(1) MLINKS for all shell
  builtin commands for which no standalone utility exists.  These MLINKS
  replace those that were created for csh(1).

* Add appropriate xrefs for builtin(1) to the csh(1) and sh(1) manpages,
  as well as to the manpages of standalone utilities which are supported
  as shell builtin commands in at least one of the shells. In such
  manpages, explain that similar functionality may be provided as a
  shell builtin command.

* Improve sh(1)'s description of the cd builtin command. Csh(1) already
  describes it adequately. Replace the cd(1) manpage with a builtin(1)
  MLINKS link.

* Clean up some mdoc problems: use Xr instead of literal "foo(n)"; use
  Ic instead of Xr for shell builtin commands.

* Undo English contractions.
