The ea_name string is not nul-terminated. Correct the documentation.
Because the subsequent field is padded to 8 bytes, and the padding is
zeroed, the ea_name string will appear to be nul-terminated whenever the
length isn't exactly one (mod eight).
This was introduced in r167010 (2007).
Additionally, mark the length fields as unsigned. This particularly
matters for the single byte ea_namelength field, which can represent
extended attribute names up to 255 bytes long.
No functional change.

man pages had this change already, but fs(5) did not.
This change makes it consistent again.

The reasoning behind this, is that if we are consistent in our
documentation about the uint*_t stuff, people will be less tempted to
write new code that uses the non-standard types.
I am not going to bump the man page dates, as these changes can be
considered style nits. The meaning of the man pages is unaffected.

<sys/extattr.h> to <ufs/ufs/extattr.h>. Move description
of extended attributes in UFS from man9/extattr.9 to
man5/fs.5.
Note that restore will not compile until <sys/extattr.h>
and <ufs/ufs/extattr.h> have been updated.

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows

man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.
