Unconditionally use binuptime(9) for get_cyclecount(9) on i386. Since this
...
function is almost exclusively used for random harvesting, there is no need
for micro-optimization. Adjust the manual page accordingly.

Back in 2003, get_cyclecount() was changed to use binuptime() instead
...
of nanotime(). Reflect this change in a manpage.

Add a consistent API to a feature that most modern CPUs have; a fast
...
counter register in-CPU.
This is to be used as a fast "timer", where linearity is more important
than time, and multiple lines in the linearity caused by multiple CPUs
in an SMP machine is not a problem.
This adds no code whatsoever to the FreeBSD kernel until it is actually
used, and then as a single-instruction inline routine (except for the
80386 and 80486 where it is some more inline code around nanotime(9).
