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).

No longer auto-start pkgsrc packages
In order to comply with the pkgsrc standards, pkgsrc packages are no
longer auto-started. Instead, we require that users follow the common
pkgsrc procedure: to start a pkgsrc package as part of system startup,
copy its startup script from /usr/pkg/etc/rc.d to /etc/rc.d, and make
the appropriate changes to /etc/rc.conf.
This change affects in particular the openssh package, of which its
ssh daemon is no longer auto-started. However, installing this
package also no longer causes all kinds of Kerberos-related warnings
to be reported at boot time now.
Also remove a leftover reference to the defunct ddekit usb package.

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).

Update usr/Makefile
- This improves the user messages.
- This update the pkgsrc checkout rules to point to the new repository,
as well as the new work process we are introducing.
- This introduces rules for the MINIX sources, as we don't have the
space anymore to distribute them by default on the official ISO.
