rwatson ba22e917d3 Add a "-r" flag to ktrdump(1) to print relative timestamps when used
with "-t" rather than absolute timestamps.  This allows the reader
to get a better sense of latency between events, such as time to
schedule an interrupt thread from time the interrupt occurred.  Assert
a copyright on ktrdump.c since I seem to be modifying it more than I
thought.
