0a62a9caa9 sh: Add kill builtin.
This allows specifying a %job (which is equivalent to the corresponding
process group).

Additionally, it improves reliability of kill from sh in high-load
situations and ensures "kill" finds the correct utility regardless of PATH,
as required by POSIX (unless the undocumented %builtin mechanism is used).

Side effect: fatal errors (any error other than kill(2) failure) now return
exit status 2 instead of 1. (This is consistent with other sh builtins, but
not in NetBSD.)

Code size increases about 1K on i386.

15b4888a24 Disallow passing in a count of zero bytes to the bus_space(9) functions.
Passing a count of zero on i386 and amd64 for [I386|AMD64]_BUS_SPACE_MEM
causes a crash/hang since the 'loop' instruction decrements the counter
before checking if it's zero.

2e88da356c Remove the note about possible unlocking during vunref(9). It might

496b5146bf Remove the description of the link0 link option, since r215297 the master
media option generally should be used instead. Actually I think the lists
of media types should be removed from the manual pages of MAC drivers
altogether and users just pointed to the output of `ifconfig -m` instead;
even before r215297 there were several outdated descriptions, technically
it's wrong most of the time as not the MAC drivers support these media
types but actually the PHY drivers do and it generally doesn't make sense
to maintain these lists in every manual page of a driver as the media is
auto-detected.

9897c45f31 sh: Add printf builtin.
This was removed in 2001 but I think it is appropriate to add it back:
* I do not want to encourage people to write fragile and non-portable echo
  commands by making printf much slower than echo.
* Recent versions of Autoconf use it a lot.
* Almost no software still wants to support systems that do not have
  printf(1) at all.
* In many other shells printf is already a builtin.

Side effect: printf is now always the builtin version (which behaves
identically to /usr/bin/printf) and cannot be overridden via PATH (except
via the undocumented %builtin mechanism).

Code size increases about 5K on i386. Embedded folks might want to replace
/usr/bin/printf with a hard link to /usr/bin/alias.

0ea0127a4d Add a man page for usb_quirk module, plus references in other man pages,
and updated comments in the usb_quirk.h header file.

The main purpose of this is to expose the quirks for ejecting 3G
modules. usb_modeswitch in Linux does a great job of collecting
information on these, and with the quirks module people can try out the
modeswitch config file entries on FreeBSD, hence the SCSI strings in the
man page.

75ba301116 Don't mention 'device acpi' or loading ACPI as a kernel module since the
latter is not supported.  This is also more consistent with manpages for
other vendor-specific drivers such as acpi_ibm(4) and acpi_sony(4).
