Initial import of NetBSD rc system

IMPORTANT: this change has a docs/UPDATING entry!

This patch performs an initial import of the infrastructure and a
subset of the NetBSD set of rc startup and shutdown scripts. The
"initial" refers to the fact that this is not yet a full switch to the
NetBSD rc system: the MINIX ramdisk rc script, which (typically) runs
as the first thing, is kept as is. After mounting the root file
system, the ramdisk rc script will start the NetBSD rc infrastructure
by invoking /etc/rc, however. The regular MINIX startup-and-shutdown
script has been moved from /etc/rc to /etc/rc.minix, and is now
invoked as part of the NetBSD rc infrastructure through a bridge rc
script /etc/rc.d/minixrc. /etc/rc.minix invokes /usr/etc/rc as before.

Switching over the ramdisk to the NetBSD system and decomposing the
MINIX rc.minix script into smaller components are left to future work.
Also, the current pkgsrc etc/rc.d auto-start functionality is left as
is, even though it should be removed (see the etc/usr/rc comment).

Add LLVM GCOV coverage support

With this patch, it is now possible to generate coverage information
for MINIX3 system services with LLVM. In particular, the system can
be built with MKCOVERAGE=yes, either with a native "make build" or
with crosscompilation. Either way, MKCOVERAGE=yes will build the
MINIX3 system services with coverage profiling support, generating a
.gcno file for each source module. After a reboot it is possible to
obtain runtime coverage data (.gcda files) for individual system
services using gcov-pull(8). The combination of the .gcno and .gcda
files can then be inspected with llvm-cov(1).

For reasons documented in minix.gcov.mk, only system service program
modules are supported for now; system service libraries (libsys etc.)
are not included. Userland programs are not affected by MKCOVERAGE.

The heart of this patch is the libsys code that writes data generated
by the LLVM coverage hooks into a serialized format using the routines
we already had for GCC GCOV. Unfortunately, the new llvm_gcov.c code
is LLVM ABI dependent, and may therefore have to be updated later when
we upgrade LLVM. The current implementation should support all LLVM
versions 3.x with x >= 4.

The rest of this patch is mostly a light cleanup of our existing GCOV
infrastructure, with as most visible change that gcov-pull(8) now
takes a service label string rather than a PID number.

build shared versions of libraries

building defaults to off until clang is updated.

current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld
invocation to build shared libraries properly. a new clang should be
installed and MKPIC defaults to no unless the newer clang is detected.

changes:

. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd

Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.

There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
. test compile fix
. harmonize includes
. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
less on the state of the machine making them now.
. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
. reduce mtree

Build NetBSD libc library in world in ELF mode.

3 sets of libraries are built now:
. ack: all libraries that ack can compile (/usr/lib/i386/)

Build NetBSD libc library in world in ELF mode.

3 sets of libraries are built now:
. ack: all libraries that ack can compile (/usr/lib/i386/)
. clang+elf: all libraries with minix headers (/usr/lib/)
. clang+elf: all libraries with netbsd headers (/usr/netbsd/)

Once everything can be compiled with netbsd libraries and headers, the
/usr/netbsd hierarchy will be obsolete and its libraries compiled with
netbsd headers will be installed in /usr/lib, and its headers
in /usr/include. (i.e. minix libc and current minix headers set
will be gone.)

To use the NetBSD libc system (libraries + headers) before
it is the default libc, see:
http://wiki.minix3.org/en/DevelopersGuide/UsingNetBSDCode
This wiki page also documents the maintenance of the patch
files of minix-specific changes to imported NetBSD code.

. Enable compilation of libddekit with new headers.
. Enable kernel compilation with new headers.
. Enable drivers compilation with new headers.
. Port legacy commands to new headers and libc.

. Remove dependency file in tree.
. Enable compilation of common/lib/libc/atomic in libsys
. Do not generate RCSID strings in libc.
. Temporarily disable zoneinfo as they are incompatible with NetBSD format
. obj-nbsd for .gitignore
. Procfs: use only integer arithmetic. (Antoine Leca)
. Increase ramdisk size to create NBSD-based images.
. Remove INCSYMLINKS handling hack.
. Add nbsd_include/sys/exec_elf.h
. Enable ELF compilation with NBSD libc.
. Add 'make nbsdsrc' in tools to download reference NetBSD sources.
. Automate minix-port.patch creation.
. Avoid using fstavfs() as it is *extremely* slow and unneeded.
. Set err() as PRIVATE to avoid name clash with libc.
. [NBSD] servers/vm: remove compilation warnings.

. UPDATING info on netbsd hierarchy
