dtrace_test: Remove the dependency on dtraceall

FBT refuses to create probes in modules which depend on dtrace(all), but
dtrace_test is a convenient place to add functions specifically for
testing dtrace.

The dependency on dtraceall is not needed, so just remove it. In fact,
it can be useful to test SDT probe creation by loading dtrace_test with
and without dtraceall loaded.

sdt: Implement SDT probes using hot-patching

The idea here is to avoid a memory access and conditional branch per
probe site. Instead, the probe is represented by an "unreachable"
unconditional function call. asm goto is used to store the address of
the probe site (represented by a no-op sled) and the address of the
function call into a tracepoint record. Each SDT probe carries a list
of tracepoints.

When the probe is enabled, the no-op sled corresponding to each
tracepoint is overwritten with a jmp to the corresponding label. The
implementation uses smp_rendezvous() to park all other CPUs while the
instruction is being overwritten, as this can't be done atomically in
general. The compiler moves argument marshalling code and the
sdt_probe() function call out-of-line, i.e., to the end of the function.

Per gallatin@ in D43504, this approach has less overhead when probes are
disabled. To make the implementation a bit simpler, I removed support
for probes with 7 arguments; nothing makes use of this except a
regression test case. It could be re-added later if need be.

The approach taken in this patch enables some more improvements:
1. We can now automatically fill out the "function" field of SDT probe
names. The SDT macros let the programmer specify the function and
module names, but this is really a bug and shouldn't have been
allowed. The intent was to be able to have the same probe in
multiple functions and to let the user restrict which probes actually
get enabled by specifying a function name or glob.
2. We can avoid branching on SDT_PROBES_ENABLED() by adding the ability
to include blocks of code in the out-of-line path. For example:

if (SDT_PROBES_ENABLED()) {
int reason = CLD_EXITED;

if (WCOREDUMP(signo))
reason = CLD_DUMPED;
else if (WIFSIGNALED(signo))
reason = CLD_KILLED;
SDT_PROBE1(proc, , , exit, reason);
}

could be written

SDT_PROBE1_EXT(proc, , , exit, reason,
int reason;

reason = CLD_EXITED;
if (WCOREDUMP(signo))
reason = CLD_DUMPED;
else if (WIFSIGNALED(signo))
reason = CLD_KILLED;
);

In the future I would like to use this mechanism more generally, e.g.,
to remove branches and marshalling code used by hwpmc, and generally to
make it easier to add new tracepoint consumers without having to add
more conditional branches to hot code paths.

Mark more nodes as CTLFLAG_MPSAFE or CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT (17 of many)

r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.

This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.

Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked
as MPSAFE before are by default marked as NEEDGIANT

- For kernel compiled only with KDTRACE_HOOKS and not any lock debugging
option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].

[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested. As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while. Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].

Port the SDT test now that it's possible to create SDT probes that take
seven arguments.

The original test uses Solaris' uadmin system call to trigger the test
probe; this change adds a sysctl to the dtrace_test module and gets the test
program to trigger the test probe via the sysctl handler.

The test is currently failing on amd64 because of some bugs in the way that
probe arguments beyond the first five are obtained - these bugs will be
fixed in a separate change.
