This was disabled recently due to lack of support in KDB disassembler
and DTrace FBT provider. Support for 'C'-extension to both of these was
added, so we can now enable 'C'-extension.
This reduces size of the kernel important for low-end embedded devices,
and saves cache footprint for high perfomance machines.

No functional change.
When attempting to document the changed argument types in devstat.9, I
discovered the 20 year old manual page severely mismatched reality even
prior to my simple change. So I took a first cut pass cleaning that up to
match reality. I'm sure I've missed some things; the goal was just to leave
it better than when I started.

A similar note is already present in the description of the
ntpd_sync_on_start variable.
This patch adds a note to the description of the ntpdate_enable variable.
This way it would be easier to spot. Otherwise a user might skip the part
of the manual describing ntpd_sync_on_start if they stop reading after
learning about ntpdate_enable.

Some background: in the GSoC project, libbe/Makefile lived in lib/libbe. I
created projects/bectl branch, maintained the above for all of five
minutes before I misread Makefile.inc1 and decided that it couldn't possibly
build outside of cddl/, so I kicked the Makefile out into the cddl/ build
and all was good. The misreading was of the bit where .WAIT is added to
SUBDIR after lib, libexec but prior to building bin and cddl *only during
the install targets*, which is the critical part.
Fast forward- buildworld was still broken in my branch unbeknownst to me
because I didn't nuke my OBJDIR. Combing through Makefile.inc1 eventually
revealed the necessary magic to make sure that libbe's dependencies are
specified well enough, and it becomes clear what needs done to make a
non-cddl/ build work. This is an interesting prospect, because the build
split is kind of annoying to work with.
IGNORE_PRAGMA is added to avoid dropping WARNS by one more. This was
previously pulled in via cddl/Makefile.inc.
This basically adds makes use of the C99 restrict keyword, and also
adds some 'const's to four threading functions: pthread_mutexattr_gettype(),
pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling(), pthread_mutexattr_getprotocol(), and
pthread_mutex_getprioceiling. The changes are in accordance to POSIX/SUSv4-2018.

jails since FreeBSD 7.
Along with the system call, put the various security.jail.allow_foo and
security.jail.foo_allowed sysctls partly under COMPAT_FREEBSD11 (or
BURN_BRIDGES). These sysctls had two disparate uses: on the system side,
they were global permissions for jails created via jail(2) which lacked
fine-grained permission controls; inside a jail, they're read-only
descriptions of what the current jail is allowed to do. The first use
is obsolete along with jail(2), but keep them for the second-read-only use.

Create loader_{4th,lua,simp}{,.efi}. All of these are installed by
default. Create LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP to specify the default
interpreter when no other is specified. LOADER_INTERP is the current
interpreter language building. Turn building of lua on by default to
match 4th. simploader is a simplified loader build w/o any interpreter
language (but with a simple loader). This is the historic behavir you
got with WITHOUT_FORTH. Make a hard link to the default loader. This
has to be a hard link rather than the more desirable soft link because
older zfsboot blocks don't support symlinks.

BPF (eBPF) is an independent instruction set architecture which is
introduced in Linux a few years ago. Originally, eBPF execute
environment was only inside Linux kernel. However, recent years there
are some user space implementation (https://github.com/iovisor/ubpf,
https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/bpf_lib.html) and kernel space
implementation for FreeBSD is going on
(https://github.com/YutaroHayakawa/generic-ebpf).
The BPF target support can be enabled using WITH_LLVM_TARGET_BPF, as it
is not built by default.

it doesn't contain process arguments which however sometimes are very

While here, remove 'm' modifier from ddb.4. It was in the manual page
