A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.
This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less
ambiguous.
I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a
local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim.

that provides the allocated and setup eventhandler entry.
Add a new wrapper for VIMAGE that allocates extra space to hold the
callback function and argument in addition to an extra wrapper function.
While the wrapper function goes as normal callback function the
argument points to the extra space allocated holding the original func
and arg that the wrapper function can then call.
Provide an iterator function for the virtual network stack (vnet) that
will call the callback function for each network stack.
Provide a new set of macros for VNET that in the non-VIMAGE case will
just call eventhandler_register() while in the VIMAGE case it will use
vimage_eventhandler_register() passing in the extra iterator function
but will only register once rather than per-vnet.
We need a special macro in case we are interested in the tag returned
as we must check for curvnet and can neither simply assign the
return value, nor not change it in the non-vnet0 case without that.

processes. It did not return an error but instead
just let garbage be passed back. This I fix so
it actually properly translates the priority the
process is at to a posix's high means more priority.
I also fix it so that if the ULE scheduler has bumped
it up to a realtime process you get back a sane value
i.e. the highest priority (63 for time-share).
sched_setscheduler() had the setting of the
timeshare class priority disabled. With some notes
about rejecting the posix high numbers is greater
priority and use nice instead. This fix also
adjusts that to work, with the cavet that a t-s
process may well get bumped up or down i.e. the
setscheduler() will NOT change the nice value only
the current priority. I think this is reasonable
considering if the user wants to play with nice then
he can. At least all the posix'ish interfaces now
respond sanely.

Enhanced process coredump routines.
This brings in the following features:
1) Limit number of cores per process via the %I coredump formatter.
Example:
if corefilename is set to %N.%I.core AND num_cores = 3, then
if a process "rpd" cores, then the corefile will be named
"rpd.0.core", however if it cores again, then the kernel will
generate "rpd.1.core" until we hit the limit of "num_cores".
this is useful to get several corefiles, but also prevent filling
the machine with corefiles.
2) Encode machine hostname in core dump name via %H.
3) Compress coredumps, useful for embedded platforms with limited space.
A sysctl kern.compress_user_cores is made available if turned on.
To enable compressed coredumps, the following config options need to be set:
options COMPRESS_USER_CORES
device zlib # brings in the zlib requirements.
device gzio # brings in the kernel vnode gzip output module.
4) Eventhandlers are fired to indicate coredumps in progress.
5) The imgact sv_coredump routine has grown a flag to pass in more
state, currently this is used only for passing a flag down to compress
the coredump or not.
Note that the gzio facility can be used for generic output of gzip'd
streams via vnodes.
