---------
Make callers of namei() responsible for releasing references or locks
instead of having the underlying filesystems do it.  This eliminates
redundancy in all terminal filesystems and makes it possible for stacked
transport layers such as umapfs or nullfs to operate correctly.

Quality testing was done with testvn, and lat_fs from the lmbench suite.

Some NFS client testing courtesy of Patrik Kudo.

vop_mknod and vop_symlink still release the returned vpp.  vop_rename
still releases 4 vnode arguments before it returns.  These remaining cases
will be corrected in the next set of patches.
