This modification adds the capability to newsyslog to write the
rotation message in a format that is compliant with RFC5424. This
capability is enabled on a per-log file basis through a new value
("T") in the flags field in newsyslog.conf. This is useful on systems
that use the RFC5424 format for log files so that the rotation message
format matches that of the other log messages. There has been recent
mention of adding an RFC5424 compliant mode to syslogd and at least
one alternative system log daemon (rsyslogd) that already has the
capability to use that format.

This makes newsyslog use zstandard to compress log files.
Given Z is already taken for gzip and zstandard compression level stands in
between gzip and xz (which has the X flag) chosing Y sounds ok :)
It turns out that we had a couple of more calls to dirname()/basename()
in newsyslog(8) that assume the input isn't clobbered. This is bad,
because it apparently breaks log rotation now that the new dirname()
implementation has been merged.
Fix this by first copying the input and then calling
dirname()/basename(). While there, improve the naming of variables in
this function a bit.

Pull copies of the input pathname string before calling basename() and
dirname() to make this comply to POSIX. Free these copies at the end of
this function. While there, remove the duplication of the 's' ->
'logfname' string. There is no need for this.
After going through the signal work list, during which do_sigwork()
is called and essentially does nothing because -s and -R were
specified on the command line, newsyslog will sleep for 10 seconds
as the (verbose) code says: "Pause 10 seconds to allow daemon(s)
to close log file(s)".
However, the man page verbiage for -R (and -s) seems quite clear
that this sleep() is unnecessary because the daemon was expected
to have already closed the log file before calling newsyslog.

Summary of changes:
- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
`tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)
Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples
so it's clear that ${PACKAGES}FILES is the suggested way forward in terms of
replacing FILES. share/mk/bsd.README didn't seem like the appropriate method
of communicating that info.

When -C was introduced in r114137 the plan was to have -C and -c being used for
"create" due to a typo in FreeBSD <= 4.8 a temporary compatibility hack has been
added to make -c being like -G aka GLOB and a warning was issued for the user to
be aware of the futur change for -c.
12 years later it is more than time to remove that hack and finish the what was

This change was originally going to only migrate the usr.sbin tests but, as
it turns out, the usr.sbin/sa/ tests require files from usr.bin/lastcomm/
so it's better to just also migrate the latter at the same time. The other
usr.bin tests will be moved separately.
To make these tests work within the test suite, some of them have required
changes to prevent modifying the source directory and instead just rely on
the current directory for file manipulation.
returning directory entries through readdir(3). In this case we need to
obtain the file type ourselves; otherwise newsyslog -t will not be able to
find archived log files and will fail to both delete old log files and to
do interval-based rotations properly.

Previously we would just try to use the mtime of <logfile>.0, which always
results in a rotation since it generally doesn't exist in the -t case.
