Along with the termcap database, ncurses will now lookup for the
terminfo database, note that the terminfo database is being looked
up first and then it fallsback on the termcap one.
While here drop our custom reader for the termcap database, over the
time it is needed maintenance to be able to catchup with changes on ncurses
side.
Install the ncurses tools which are needed to deal with the terminfo
database: tic, infocmp, toe
Replace our termcap only aware tools with the ncurses counterpart:
tput, tabs, tset, clear and reset
In particular they can your the extra capabilities described in the
terminfo database, which does not exist in termcap
Note that to add a new terminfo information to the database from ports
the ports will just need to add their extra information into:
/usr/local/share/site-terminfo/<firstletteroftheterm>/<term>

This patch adds Position Independent Executables (PIE)
flags for building OS. It allows to enable the ASLR
feature based only on the sysctl knobs, without
need to rebuild the image. Tests showed that
no problems with stability / performance degradation
were seen when using PIEs with ASLR disabled.
The change is limited only for 64-bit architectures.
Use bsd.opts.mk instead of the src.opts.mk in order
to satisfy all build dependencies related to MK_PIE.

This is a prerequisite to allowing the use of hardware watchpoints for
userspace debuggers.
This is also a slight departure from the x86 behaviour, since `si_addr`
returns the data address that triggered the watchpoint, not the
address of the instruction that was executed. Otherwise, there is no
straightforward way for the application to determine which watchpoint
was triggered. Make a note of this in the siginfo(3) man page.

Clang always prints "clang $VERSION" regardless of the name used to
execute it, whereas GCC prints "$progname $VERSION", meaning if CC is
set to cc and cc is GCC it will print "cc $VERSION". We are able to
detect some of those cases since it then prints "($PKGVERSION)", where
the default is "GCC", but many distributions override that to print
their name and the package version number (e.g. "Debian 10.2.1-6"), so
nothing tells us it's GCC other than the fact that it's not Clang (and
that there's an FSF copyright disclaimer).
However, GCC's -v option will always print "gcc version $VERSION", so
fall back on using that to detect GCC. Whilst Clang also supports this
option, we should never get here, so Clang handling is not added.

Currently, OpenCrypto consumers can request asynchronous dispatch by
setting a flag in the cryptop. (Currently only IPSec may do this.) I
think this is a bit confusing: we (conditionally) set cryptop flags to
request async dispatch, and then crypto_dispatch() immediately examines
those flags to see if the consumer wants async dispatch. The flag names
are also confusing since they don't specify what "async" applies to:
dispatch or completion.
Add a new KPI, crypto_dispatch_async(), rather than encoding the
requested dispatch type in each cryptop. crypto_dispatch_async() falls
back to crypto_dispatch() if the session's driver provides asynchronous
dispatch. Get rid of CRYPTOP_ASYNC() and CRYPTOP_ASYNC_KEEPORDER().
Similarly, add crypto_dispatch_batch() to request processing of a tailq
of cryptops, rather than encoding the scheduling policy using cryptop
flags. Convert GELI, the only user of this interface (disabled by
default) to use the new interface.
Add CRYPTO_SESS_SYNC(), which can be used by consumers to determine
whether crypto requests will be dispatched synchronously. This is just
a helper macro. Use it instead of looking at cap flags directly.
Fix style in crypto_done(). Also get rid of CRYPTO_RETW_EMPTY() and
just check the relevant queues directly. This could result in some
unnecessary wakeups but I think it's very uncommon to be using more than
one queue per worker in a given workload, so checking all three queues
is a waste of cycles.

Handling of unknown MACs on an bridge with incomplete learning
capabilites (aka uplink ports) can be defined in different ways.
The classical approach is to broadcast unicast frames send to an
unknown MAC, because the unknown devices can be everywhere. This mode
is default for ng_bridge(4).
In the case of dedicated uplink ports, which prohibit learning of MAC
addresses in order to save memory and CPU cycles, the broadcast
approach is dangerous. All traffic to the uplink port is broadcasted
to every downlink port, too. In this case, it's better to restrict the
distribution of frames to unknown MAC to the uplink ports only.
In order to keep the chance small and the handling as natural as
possible, the first attached link is used to determine the behaviour
of the bridge: If it is an "uplink" port, then the bridge switch from
classical mode to restricted mode.

The ng_bridge(4) node is designed to work in moderately small
environments. Connecting such a node to a larger network rapidly fills
the MAC table for no reason. It even become complicated to obtain data
from the gettable message, because the result is too large to
transmit.
This patch introduces, two new functionality bits on the hooks:
- Allow or disallow MAC address learning for incoming patckets.
- Allow or disallow sending unknown MACs through this hook.
Uplinks are characterized by denied learing while sending out
unknowns. Normal links are charaterized by allowed learning and
sending out unknowns.
