Most of I4B has been disconnected from the build

This is what was removed:

- user space tools

Many bad things can happen, especially if the -i option is in use.
Therefore, add a check to make sure it still exists before we start
comparing files.

An mtree description of all non-zero files that make
distribution installs (only size and md5) is built from the
temproot. When the user completes a mergemaster run, the
mtree description file gets installed into /var/db for
safe-keeping.
When the user then decides to do a subsequent upgrade (with
the -U flag), the existing mtree description from /var/db
is called into service looking for files that are different in
DESTDIR. This is stashed away until a file that would normally
end up prompting the user to look at changes is encountered.
Since there are no user modified changes, the new file is
installed without bothering the user.

this might happen, installing to an empty DESTDIR.

* Add a paragraph suggesting that the merge option be used only for
files that users have modified. People have been using this option
for all files that are different, causing unecessary confusion.
The idea for this option came from Marc Schneiders <marc@schneiders.org>
* I've been meaning to remove the code that checked for the existence of
/etc/sysconfig for a while now, since that file was last seen in 2.2.2.
* Replace the above with a check for elements of the old rc system.
Offer to move these files out of DESTDIR/etc for the user's convenience.
* Give back one line of ws when showing a diff.
This was requested by several.
* Un-quote DIFF_FLAG, and add DIFF_OPTIONS. This will allow the user to
do more creative things in a mergemaster rc file. Un-quoting is necessary
in order to handle things like CVS Id tags that look like shell variables.
* Simplify terminal width determination.
Suggestions related to ignoring the CVS Id's were taken from several, with
dillon and gad providing particularly helpful feedback.

* Since this means that for now we can't accomodate non-standard
umask's, warn the user accordingly.
* Convert the "press enter to continue" prompt into a function.
master.passwd, group, and make.conf
* Add a feature to check variables in rc.conf[.local] to their
counterparts in /etc/defaults/rc.conf after a run
* Twiddle whitespace a little
* Change some "[ -f file ] && rm file" to "rm -f file"
* Fix a problem with files that have no CVS $Id's. Thanks to naddy for
spotting this one. It wasn't a _huge_ problem since almost all the files
we install (except motd) have one, but still, it's a bug.
* Add a divider between diff outputs, which is helpful both for logs,
and for giving a good visual clue for diffs that are smaller than
$LINES. Another helpful suggestion from Gary W. Swearingen, swear@blarg.net.
Use -tag list in the FILES section to work around the bug
when .Pa font is not restored to its original value if one
of the -hang, -ohang, or -inset lists is used in the FILES
section. (The fix for the bug has just been submitted to
the GNU Groff maintainers.)
Also, fixed the Handbook reference in the SEE ALSO.
exist, and therefore mm_install is returning the "fail" value of
the test instead of the "success" value for install.
This change is a no-op on HEAD, but since the only harm on RELENG_4
ATM is a spurious warning it can follow the usual MFC practice.

"install && rm" change fits in with the new FreeBSD default of
copy instead of move for install. Changing the order of the deletion
of the spurious password files doesn't affect FreeBSD functionality,
but it's done in such a way as not to matter.

NO_MAKEDEV_INSTALL and NO_MAKEDEV_RUN. The former implying the latter.
The names imply what they do. The last commit by DES based on a PR defeated
the original idea behind NO_MAKEDEV, which was not to run MAKEDEV, but to do
the installation of MAKEDEV. This should satisfy both parties on the MAKEDEV
challenge.
Reflect this in mergemaster, this might later on be decided to be set to
NO_MAKEDEV_INSTALL, for now I kept to the old behaviour.

* Return to using grep for CVS $Id comparison. Using ident caused too
many problems for people with local CVS/RCS tags in their stuff.
Attempt to make portability a little easier to maintain in spite of
this change by defining the name of the tag to search for. This
is a slightly different change that solves the problem in the PR.

* Adjust a little whitespace
* Make the distrib-dirs/mtree on DESTDIR conditional on user
actually specifying a DESTDIR. This seemed like a safe
way to get the right directories and permissions in the
installed tree since 'make installworld' does the same
thing, but in practice too many people have custom hacks
that we should leave unmolested. Still need to find a way
to deal with 'install -d' and permissions on nonexistent
directories in the middle of the path, but this is at
least no worse that it was before.

* Add -i option to automatically install files that do not exist
on the system already.
* Add the ability to specify DESTDIR.
* Allow the user to specify scripts to run right before the

implement features such as automatically deleting files.

* Switch to using 'ident' for the CVS Id comparison, which
should help with portability, and makes it faster.
