Gut more stuff so we fit. Last working RAMDISK kernel was 6.1.5.
Nobody runs this stuff anymore, so consider that netbsd 9 might be
the last sun2 release.

clean up COMPAT_* options for native netbsd code:
- new series of files that are useful for saying "i want everything

- use the fact COMPAT_* options have future dependancies to remove
many redundant options.

tested about 30 random kernels in the changed list.

The rnd pseudo-device is not really optional, because it is in the same
source file as the entropy-pool code itself. Move it to std. This
will be cleaned up more when I split the sources up as they should be.

This fixes build breaks on several ports. Thanks to Havard Eidnes for
pointing them out.

merge the bouyer-quota2 branch. This adds a new on-disk format
to store disk quota usage and limits, integrated with ffs
metadata. Usage is checked by fsck_ffs (no more quotacheck)
and is covered by the WAPBL journal. Enabled with kernel
option QUOTA2 (added where QUOTA was enabled in kernel config files),
turned on with tunefs(8) on a per-filesystem
basis. mount_mfs(8) can also turn quotas on.
