852c8fe589 Move the nvlist source and private includes from sys/kern to seperate
directory sys/contrib/libnv.

The goal of this operation is to NOT install header files which shouldn't
be used outside the nvlist library.

9fb85ece8b Enforce overwritting SHLIBDIR
Since METAMODE has been added, sys.mk loads bsd.mkopt.mk which ends load loading
bsd.own.mk which then defines SHLIBDIR before all the Makefile.inc everywhere.

This makes /lib being populated again.

b9b0abb325 Remove the nvlist_.*[fv] functions.
Those functions are problematic, because there is no way to report
memory allocation problems without complicating the API, so we can
either abort or potentially return invalid results. None of which is
acceptable.

In most cases the caller knows the size of the name, so he can allocate
buffer on the stack and use snprintf(3) to prepare the name.

After some discussion the conclusion is to removed those functions,
which also simplifies the API.

8c5d4c9ca2 Add function to force an nvlist into the error state
Add an nvlist_set_error() function that can be used to force an
nvlist into the error state.  This is useful both for writing
tests and for writing APIs that use nvlists internally.
