User-visible changes:
"-u" is added to to list of command line options supported by bthidd.
Use it to enable evdev support. uinput and evdev modules should be
kld-loaded or compiled into the kernel in that case.
bthidd_evdev_support rc.conf variable is added to control enabling of
evdev support in bthidd startup script. Possible values are: "YES", "NO",
"AUTO"(default). Setting bthidd_evdev_support to "AUTO" inserts "-u" option
if kernel is compiled with EVDEV_SUPPORT option enabled.
Support for consumer HID usage page keyboard events is implemented. Most of
them are available only through evdev protocol.
kern.evdev.rcpt_mask sysctl is checked, so "sysctl kern.evdev.rcpt_mask=12"
should be executed if EVDEV_SUPPORT is compiled into kernel.
It is recommended to regenerate bthidd.conf entries with bthidcontrol(8)
"Query" command to set user-friendly names of bluetooth devices.

assignments to the literal values it would have returned.
The concept of set_rcvar() was nice in theory, but the forks
it creates are a drag on the startup process, which is especially
noticeable on slower systems, such as embedded ones.
During the discussion on freebsd-rc@ a preference was expressed for
using ${name}_enable instead of the literal values. However the
code portability concept doesn't really apply since there are so
many other places where the literal name has to be searched for
and replaced. Also, using the literal value is also a tiny bit
faster than dereferencing the variables, and every little bit helps.
to allow them to do a "clean" shutdown.
I purposely avoided making changes to network-related stuff since the
system shutting down is pretty conclusive, and there may be complicated
dependencies on the network that I would rather not try to unravel.
I also skipped kerberos-related stuff for the reasons above, and
because I have no way to test it.
