parallel fsck's one per drive, use the shortest prefix ending in
a digit rather than the longest prefix ending in a digit.
This makes "/dev/ad0s1a" and "/dev/ad0s2a" appear to both reside
on the disk "/dev/ad0" and consequently they will be fsck'ed
sequentially rather than in parallel as now.
In general this heuristic is rather soft and errorprone. For
instance ccd may often reside on two or more physical disks. A
good solution would be to look for passes larger than 1 until no
disks are found in a particular pass, that way people could put
ccd stripes in pass 3... and have them fsck'ed sequentially.

Second part of the fsck wrappers commit. This commit enables the new fsck
code (removing the fsck/* code and replacing it with the netbsd fsck
wrapper code), and enabling some FFS-based utilities to compile.
Details:
* quotacheck, fsdb required modification to use the fsck_ffs/ code rather
than fsck/ . This might change later since quotacheck requires preen.c
which should exist in fsck/ rather than fsck_ffs/
* src/Makefile has fsck_ffs added to it so it it built as part of the tree
now
* share/doc/smm/03.fsck/ uses the SMM.doc/ stuff from fsck_ffs, not fsck.
I've tested this, and it shouldn't require any changes on your machine.
The fsck wrapper reads /etc/fsck and is command-line-compatible enough
to not require rc changes (well, most changes unless you want to do
anything nifty by specifying the fs types explicityly, read the man page
if you want further details on what it can do.)
This now allows us to support multiple filesystem types during bootup.

This exactly matches Kirks sources imported under the
Tag MCKUSICK2. These are as supplied by kirk with one small
change needed to compile under freeBSD.
Some FreeBSD patches will be added back, though many have been
added to Kirk's sources already.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
preen (-p), and in that case the filesystem is skipped if it is clean.
A new flag "-f" for 'force' has been added which basically gives back
the old behavior of checking all the filesystems all the time. This
very closely models the behavior of SunOS and Ultrix.
