6de681c6e6 Instead of just hinting at available octets, list some.
Mention that the setting of securelevel may affect one's ability to alter flags.
Xref security.7.

7e81a15205 Add an interface to the lchflags(2) syscall. The new -h option is
analogous to chmod(1)'s -h. It allows setting flags on symbolic links,
which *do* exist in 5.x+ despite a claim to the contrary in the
chflags(1) man page.

158562983e Yet another previously forgotten merge from Lite2. (Describe
`opaque', fix reversed description of `nodump', and don't use
`nodump' as an example of adding a `no' prefix since the double
negative would be confusing (it's still confusing -- the implicitly
documented `nonodump' flag doesn't exist).)

These changes add the ability to specify that a UFS file/directory
cannot be unlinked. This is basically a scaled back version
of the IMMUTABLE flag. The reason is to allow an administrator
to create a directory hierarchy that a group of users
can arbitrarily add/delete files from, but that the hierarchy
itself is safe from removal by them.
If the NOUNLINK definition is set to 0
then this results in no change to what happens normally.
(and results in identical binary (in the kernel)).
It can be proven that if this bit is never set by the admin,
no new behaviour is introduced..
Several "good idea" comments from reviewers plus one grumble
about creeping featurism.

This code is in production in 2.2 based systems

62a1ce7ac9 Document the arch flag. It has always worked in 2.0.
Document aliases for the flags.

The formatting of the section describing the flags is poor.
