apmd: Retire the APM daemon

The original purpose of this daemon was to route power management
requests to userspace, e.g. when the suspend button was pressed, the
APM driver posted an event read by apmd(8) that would invoke zzz(8) to
suspend. However, on ACPI systems this is handled by devd(8) events
instead and running apmd(8) in addition just adds extra complexity.
This probably should have been axed when the APM BIOS support was
retired in commit 8c576a279ed5.

Remove ftpd(8)

This was previously deprecated and is slated for removal in 15.0.
Users who still need ftpd(8) can install the ftp/freebsd-ftpd port.

Retain the ftp(d) PAM services since other FTP daemons use them.

Update /etc/inetd.conf to point to /usr/local.

Add ftpd to ObsoleteFiles, but do not list configuration files since
users may want to preserve these to use with the freebsd-ftpd port.

There is still some language in the manual referring to ftpd(8)
which is relevant to the port, which has been retained but updated
to reference the port.

Disconnect non-MPSAFE SMBFS from the build in preparation for dropping
GIANT from VFS. In addition, disconnect also netsmb, which is a base
requirement for SMBFS.

In the while SMBFS regular users can use FUSE interface and smbnetfs
port to work with their SMBFS partitions.

Also, there are ongoing efforts by vendor to support in-kernel smbfs,
so there are good chances that it will get relinked once properly locked.

This is not targeted for MFC.

Finally nuke auth.conf, nine years after it was deprecated. The only
thing it was still used for was to set the "global default" password
hash. Since the stock auth.conf contained nothing but comments, the
global default was actually the first algorithm in crypt(3)'s list,
which happens to be DES; I take the fact that nobody noticed as proof
that it was not used outside of crypt(3).

The only other use in our tree was in the Kerberos support code in
in tinyware's passwd(1). I removed that code in an earlier commit;
it would not have compiled anyway, as it only supported Kerberos IV.

The auth_getval() function is now a stub that always returns NULL,
which has the same effect as a functional auth_getval() with an
empty auth.conf.

Add nsswitch support. By creating an /etc/nsswitch.conf file, you can
configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.

= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).

= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).

= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr

= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.
