cem 9c1e214f79 Fix core corruption caused by race in note_procstat_vmmap
This fix is spiritually similar to r287442 and was discovered thanks to
the KASSERT added in that revision.

NT_PROCSTAT_VMMAP output length, when packing kinfo structs, is tied to
the length of filenames corresponding to vnodes in the process' vm map
via vn_fullpath.  As vnodes may move during coredump, this is racy.

We do not remove the race, only prevent it from causing coredump
corruption.

- Add a sysctl, kern.coredump_pack_vmmapinfo, to allow users to disable
  kinfo packing for PROCSTAT_VMMAP notes.  This avoids VMMAP corruption
  and truncation, even if names change, at the cost of up to PATH_MAX
  bytes per mapped object.  The new sysctl is documented in core.5.

- Fix note_procstat_vmmap to self-limit in the second pass.  This
  addresses corruption, at the cost of sometimes producing a truncated
  result.

- Fix PROCSTAT_VMMAP consumers libutil (and libprocstat, via copy-paste)
  to grok the new zero padding.
