Retire MINIX tcpstat(1), udpstat(1)
This needs to be done before retiring inet itself, since these
utilities include headers from inet directly.
Also retire the now-obsolete paramvalue(3).

UDS: full rewrite
This new implementation of the UDS service is built on top of the
libsockevent library. It thereby inherits all the advantages that
libsockevent brings. However, the fundamental restructuring
required for that change also paved the way for resolution of a
number of other important open issues with the old UDS code. Most
importantly, the rewrite brings the behavior of the service much
closer to POSIX compliance and NetBSD compatibility. These are the
most important changes:
- due to the use of libsockevent, UDS now supports multiple suspending
calls per socket and a large number of standard socket flags and
options;
- socket address matching is now based on <device,inode> lookups
instead of canonized path names, and socket addresses are no longer
altered either due to canonization or at connect time;
- the socket state machine is now well defined, most importantly
resolving the erroneous reset-on-EOF semantics of the old UDS, but
also allowing socket reuse;
- sockets are now connected before being accepted instead of being
held in connecting state, unless the LOCAL_CONNWAIT option is set
on either the connecting or the listening socket;
- connect(2) on datagram sockets is now supported (needed by syslog),
and proper datagram socket disconnect notification is provided;
- the receive queue now supports segmentation, associating ancillary
data (in-flight file descriptors and credentials) with each segment
instead of being kept fully separately; this is a POSIX requirement
(and needed by tmux);
- as part of the segmentation support, the receive queue can now hold
as many packets as can fit, instead of one;
- in addition to the flags supported by libsockevent, the MSG_PEEK,
MSG_WAITALL, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC, MSG_TRUNC, and MSG_CTRUNC send and
receive flags are now supported;
- the SO_PASSCRED and SO_PEERCRED socket options are replaced by
LOCAL_CREDS and LOCAL_PEEREID respectively, now following NetBSD
semantics and allowing use of NetBSD libc's getpeereid(3);
- memory usage is reduced by about 250 KB due to centralized in-flight
file descriptor tracking, with a limit of OPEN_MAX total rather than
of OPEN_MAX per socket;
- memory usage is reduced by another ~50 KB due to removal of state
redundancy, despite the fact that socket path names may now be up to
253 bytes rather than the previous 104 bytes;
- compared to the old UDS, there is now very little direct indexing on
the static array of sockets, thus allowing dynamic allocation of
sockets more easily in the future;
- the UDS service now has RMIB support for the net.local sysctl tree,
implementing preliminary support for NetBSD netstat(1).

Add libsockevent: a socket event dispatching library
This library provides an event-based abstraction model and dispatching
facility for socket drivers. Its main goal is to eliminate any and
all need for socket drivers to keep track of pending socket calls.
Additionally, this library takes over responsibility of a number of
other tasks that would otherwise be duplicated between socket drivers,
but in such a way that individual socket drivers retain a large degree
of freedom in terms of API behavior. The library's main features are:
- suspension, resumption, and cancellation of socket calls;
- an abstraction layer for select(2);
- state tracking of shutdown(2);
- pending (asynchronous) errors and the SO_ERROR socket option;
- listening-socket tracking and the SO_ACCEPTCONN socket option;
- generation of SIGPIPE signals; SO_NOSIGPIPE, MSG_NOSIGNAL;
- send and receive low-watermark tracking, SO_SNDLOWAT, SO_RCVLOWAT;
- send and receive timeout support and SO_SNDTIMEO, SO_RCVTIMEO;
- an abstraction layer for the SO_LINGER socket option;
- tracking of various on/off socket options as well as SO_TYPE;
- a range of pre-checks on socket calls that are required POSIX.
In order to track per-socket state, the library manages an opaque
"sock" object for each socket. The allocation of such objects is left
entirely to the socket driver. Each sock object has an associated
callback table for calls from libsockevent to the socket driver. The
socket driver can raise events on the sock object in order to flag
that any previously suspended operations of a particular type should
be resumed. The library may defer processing such raised events if
immediate processing could interfere with internal consistency.
The sockevent library is layered on top of libsockdriver, and should
be used by all socket driver implementations if at all possible.

Revert "libutil: add getmaxpartitions() implementation"
This reverts commit 22ad44d6a9fa80d47806bf1897394569b6c15b8a.
With the MIB service implemented, this hack is no longer necessary.

Import NetBSD libkvm
Imported with no changes, but not all parts are expected to be
functional. The libc nlist functionality is enabled for the
purpose of successful linking, although the nlist functionaly has
not been tested on MINIX3 nor is it needed for how we use libkvm.
In terms of function calls: kvm_getproc2, kvm_getargv2,
kvm_getenvv2, and kvm_getlwps are expected to work, whereas
kvm_getproc, kvm_getargv, kvm_getenvv, and kvm_getfiles are not.
