that needs it and is always done: make.conf build.
(*) In our build environment we actually never do a clean build unless
instructed to do so, to make sure we do not accidentally delete the
built world when on a tight schedule.
As a side effect...
1. The tests now checks for the root user before continuing with kyua, which is
more visible than the test being skipped with the TAP protocol
2. The tests work with devices that aren't /dev/md0 by caching the device
attached during the test to a file, and later use the cached information to
detach the device in the cleanup routine
3. The tests no longer require perl to run

This allows one to make a kernel module to tune the
number of queues before the driver loads.
This is needed so that a module at SI_SUB_CPU can set
tunables for these drivers to take. Otherwise getenv
is called too early by the TUNABLE macros.

xform_ipip was used as fallback with low priority for IPIP
encapsulated packets that were decrypted. In some cases
it can decapsulate packets, that it shouldn't. This leads to situations,
when wrong configurations are magically working. Also it can propagate
wrong ingress interface and this can break security.
Now we redesigned the IPSEC code and IPIP encapsulation is called directly
from ipsec_output, and decapsulation is done in the ipsec_input with m_striphdr.

- Threads lifetime cycle, in particular, counting of the threads in
the process, and interlocking with process mutex and thread lock.
The main reason of this is that turnstile locks are after thread
locks, so you e.g. cannot unlock blockable mutex (think process
mutex) while owning thread lock.
- Virtual and profiling itimers, since the timers activation is done
from the clock interrupt context. Replace the p_slock by p_itimmtx
and PROC_ITIMLOCK().
- Profiling code (profil(2)), for similar reason. Replace the p_slock
by p_profmtx and PROC_PROFLOCK().
- Resource usage accounting. Need for the spinlock there is subtle,
my understanding is that spinlock blocks context switching for the
current thread, which prevents td_runtime and similar fields from
changing (updates are done at the mi_switch()). Replace the p_slock
by p_statmtx and PROC_STATLOCK().
The split is done mostly for code clarity, and should not affect
scalability.
