Don't require operators to override the list of network filesystem
...
types (networkfs_types) with a version that includes the original
list.
This increases the scope for user error and also means that systems with
networkfs_types set in /etc/rc.conf will not benefit from changes to the
list in /etc/defaults/rc.conf on upgrade.
Instead, store the default list in /etc/rc itself and allow the operator
to append to that list by specifying her own list in networkfs_types.
Rename networkfs_types to extra_netfs_types accordingly, as the new name
better describes the purpose of the variable. Default the value to
'NO'.

Re-introduce the fix that delays mounting of network filesystems until
...
the network is initialized. This was first implemented in rev 1.268
of src/etc/rc, but was backed out at wollman's request.
The objection was that the right place for the fix is in mount(8).
Having looked at that problem, I find it hard to believe that
the hoops one would have to jump through can be justified by the
desire for purity alone.
Note that there are reported issues surrounding nfsclient kernel
support and mount_nfs(8), which currently make NFS an ugly exception
to the general case.
With this change, systems with non-NFS network filesystems configured
for mounting on startup in /etc/fstab are no longer guaranteed to
fail on startup.
