fa6bd7906a Change iostat -Ix to display total duration of transactions instead
of average duration, and total busy time instead of %.

This looks more useful when one runs `iostat -Ix` periodically to
collect statistics: e.g. now it is possible to calculate busy %
between two runs subtracting total busy times and dividing per time
period.

Average duration and % busy are still available via `iostat -x`.

b886db4a4b Clarify a few details about iostat(8) behavior:
- The default repeat count for iostat(8) is 1 unless there
  was a -w on the command line.

- A -x display doesn't include TTY or CPU stats by default
  but they can be turned on with a -T or -C, respectively.

fbdd58046b Make use of the new features of libdevstat to allow iostat to work on
crash dumps, and make it use sysctl for all data retrievals in the
"live" case (i.e. when not using iostat on a crash dump).
Remove setgid kmem for the iostat executable, it is not needed any
more after these changes.

8f85341ce5 Fixed segfault when more then four devices are specified (improper free),
fixed variable so all manually-specified devices are shown rather then
    cutting the display off at 3, fixed formatting for msps when msps is
    larger then 100 (it was blowing the columner display output before),
    added -K option to make blk count (-oIK) force a 1K block size (to conform
    more closely to systat, vmstat definition of blocksize).
