With the new expansion code (word splitting during instead of after other
expansion processing), tracing the result of command substitution is no
longer possible, so stop trying.
This should allow to drop 'ieee80211_ff_[age/flush]' calls from drivers
(an additional call can be made from ieee80211_tx_complete()
for non-default ieee80211_ffagemax values to prevent stalls -
but it will require an additional counter for transmitted frames).
Tested with RTL8821AU, STA mode (A-MSDU part only).

When I initially did this 11n TX work in days of yonder, my 802.11 standards
clue was ... not as finely tuned. One of the things in 802.11-2012 (which
I guess technically was after I did this work, but I'm sure it was like this
in the previous rev?) is that among other traffic classes, three things are
important:
* group addressed frames should be default non-QoS, even if they're QoS frames, and
* group addressed frames should have a seqno out of a different space than the
per-TID QoS one; and because of this
* group addressed frames, being non-QoS, should never be in the Block-ACK window
for TX.
Now, net80211 and now this code cheats by using the non-QOS TID, but ideally
we'd introduce a separate seqno space just for multicast/group traffic for
TX and RX comparison.
Later extensions (eg reliable multicast / multimedia) express what one should do
when doing multicast traffic in a TID. Now, technically we /could/ do group traffic
as QoS traffic and throw it into a per-TID seqno space, but this definitely
introduces ordering issues when you take into account things like CABQ behaviour.
(Ie, if some traffic in the TID goes into the CABQ and some doesn't, because
it's doing a split of multicast and non-multicast traffic, then you have
seqno ordering issues.)
So, until someone implements 802.11vv reliable multicast / multimedia extensions,
group traffic is non-QoS.
Next, software/hardware queue TID mapping. In the past I believed the WME tagging
of frames because well, net80211 had a habit of tagging things like management
traffic with it. But, then we also map QoS traffic categories to TIDs as well.
So, we should obey the TID! But! then it put some management traffic into higher
WME categories too, as those frames don't have QoS TIDs. But! It'd do things like
put things like QoS action frames into higher WME categories, when they should
be kept in-order with the rest of the traffic for that TID. So! Given all of this,
the ath(4) driver does overrides to not trust the WME category.
I .. am undoing some of this. Now, the TID has a 1:1 mapping to the hardware
queue. The TID is the primary source of truth now for all QoS traffic.
The WME is only used for non-QoS traffic. This now means that any TID traffic
queued should be consistently queued regardless of WME, so things like the
"TX finished, do more TX" that is occuring right now for transmit handling
should be "better".
The consistent {TID, WME} -> hardware queue mapping is important for
transmit completion. It's used to schedule more traffic for that
particular TID, because that {many TID}:{1 TXQ} mapping in ath_tx_tid_sched()
is used for driving completion. Ie, when the hardware queue completes,
it'll walk that list of scheduled TIDs attached to that TXQ.
The eventual aim is to get ready for some other features around putting
some data into other hardware queues (eg for better PS-POLL support,
uAPSD, support, correct-er TDMA support, etc) which requires that
I tidy all of this up in preparation for then introducing further
TID scheduling that isn't linked to a hardware TXQ (likely a per-WME, per-TID
driver queue, and a per-node driver queue) to enable that.
Tested:
* AR9380, STA mode
* AR9380, AR9580, AP mode
cleanups enabled by that:
- The only thing left in imx_gptvar.h was the softc, which IMO never
should have been in there at all. Move it into the driver, and
delete the header file.
- Remove several unneeded #includes from the driver.
- Change imx_gpt_softc from global to static (it's used by DELAY()), and
don't redundantly static-initialize it to NULL.
In pf_route6() we re-run the ruleset with PF_FWD if the packet goes out
of a different interface. pf_test6() needs to know that the packet was
forwarded (in case it needs to refragment so it knows whether to call
ip6_output() or ip6_forward()).
This lead pf_test6() to try to evaluate rules against the PF_FWD
direction, which isn't supported, so it needs to treat PF_FWD as PF_OUT.
Once fwdir is set correctly the correct output/forward function will be
called.

man(1) has some logic to use two spaces after a full stop, which is
useful for spotting sentence breaks in monospace fonts. However,
this logic is very simple, treating almost all '.' characters as
end-of-sentence markers, unless followed by certain other
characters. For example, '.,' is not end-of-sentence, and neither
is ".) ", but ".)" at the end of a line triggers the sentence-end
detection.
Apply a zero-width space to a few instances of this in share/man,
and also supply a missing full stop for an instance that occurred at
the end of a sentence.
Leave untouched several instances that are at the end of a sentence
or list element.

Add a clock_nanosleep() syscall, as specified by POSIX.
Make nanosleep() a wrapper around it.
Attach the clock_nanosleep test from NetBSD. Adjust it for the
FreeBSD behavior of updating rmtp only when interrupted by a signal.
I believe this to be POSIX-compliant, since POSIX mentions the rmtp
parameter only in the paragraph about EINTR. This is also what
Linux does. (NetBSD updates rmtp unconditionally.)
Copy the whole nanosleep.2 man page from NetBSD because it is complete
and closely resembles the POSIX description. Edit, polish, and reword it
a bit, being sure to keep any relevant text from the FreeBSD page.

Decode the last argument to ioctl() as a pointer rather than an int.
Eventually this could use 'int' for the _IOWINT() case and pointers for
all others.
The last argument to sendto() is a socklen_t value, not a pointer.
We should never end up executing the inter-function padding, so we
are better off faulting than silently carrying on to whatever function
happens to be next.
Note that LLD will soon do this by default (although it currently pads
with zeros).

Typically, when elf_load_section() unconditionally passed VM_PROT_ALL to
elf_map_insert(), it was needlessly enabling execute access on the
mapping, and it would later have to call vm_map_protect() to correct the
mapping's access rights. Now, instead, elf_load_section() always passes
its parameter "prot" to elf_map_insert(). So, elf_load_section() must
only call vm_map_protect() if it needs to remove the write access that
was temporarily granted to perform a copyout().

- PIE_MAX_PROB is compared to variable of int64_t and the type promotion
rules can cause the value of that variable to be treated as unsigned.
If the value is actually negative, then the result of the comparsion
is incorrect, causing the algorithm to perform poorly in some
situations. Changing the constant to be signed cause the comparision
to work correctly.
- PIE_SCALE is also compared to signed values. Fortunately they are
also compared to zero and negative values are discarded so this is
more of a cosmetic fix.
- PIE_DQ_THRESHOLD is only compared to unsigned values, but it is small
enough that the automatic promotion to unsigned is harmless.
