MAC/priority module for realtime privilege group

This is a MAC policy module that grants scheduling privileges based on
group membership. Users or processes in the group realtime (gid 47) are
allowed to run threads and processes with realtime scheduling priority.
For timing-sensitive, low-latency software like audio/jack, running with
realtime priority helps to avoid stutter and gaps.

Retire synchronous PPP kernel driver sppp(4).

The last two drivers that required sppp are cp(4) and ce(4).

Retire synchronous PPP kernel driver sppp(4).

The last two drivers that required sppp are cp(4) and ce(4).

These devices are still produced and can be purchased
at Cronyx <http://cronyx.ru/hardware/wan.html>.

Since Roman Kurakin <rik@FreeBSD.org> has quit them, they no
longer support FreeBSD officially. Later they have dropped
support for Linux drivers to. As of mid-2020 they don't even
have a developer to maintain their Windows driver. However,
their support verbally told me that they could provide aid to
a FreeBSD developer with documentaion in case if there appears
a new customer for their devices.

These drivers have a feature to not use sppp(4) and create an
interface, but instead expose the device as netgraph(4) node.
Then, you can attach ng_ppp(4) with help of ports/net/mpd5 on
top of the node and get your synchronous PPP. Alternatively
you can attach ng_frame_relay(4) or ng_cisco(4) for HDLC.
Actually, last time I used cp(4) back in 2004, using netgraph(4)
instead of sppp(4) was already the right way to do.

Thus, remove the sppp(4) related part of the drivers and enable
by default the negraph(4) part. Further maintenance of these
drivers in the tree shouldn't be a big deal.

While doing that, remove some cruft and enable cp(4) compilation
on amd64. The ce(4) for some unknown reason marks its internal
DDK functions with __attribute__ fastcall, which most likely is
safe to remove, but without hardware I'm not going to do that, so
ce(4) remains i386-only.

vmd(4): Major driver refactoring

- Re-implement pcib interface to use standard pci bus driver on top of
vmd(4) instead of custom one.
- Re-implement memory/bus resource allocation to properly handle even
complicated configurations.
- Re-implement interrupt handling to evenly distribute children's MSI/
MSI-X interrupts between available vmd(4) MSI-X vectors and setup them
to be handled by standard OS mechanisms with minimal overhead, except
sharing when unavoidable.

Successfully tested on Dell XPS 13 laptop with Core i7-1185G7 CPU (VMD
device ID 0x9a0b) and single NVMe SSD, dual-booting with Windows 10.

Successfully tested on Supermicro X11DPI-NT motherboard with Xeon(R)
Gold 6242R CPUs (VMD device ID 0x201d), simultaneously handling NVMe
SSD on one PCIe port and PLX bridge with 3 NVMe and 1 AHCI SSDs on
another. Handles SSD hot-plug (except Optane 905p for some reason,
which are not detected until manual bus rescan) and enabled IOMMU
(directly connected SSDs work, but ones connected to the PLX fail
without errors from IOMMU).

man: Build manpages for all architectures

Building and installing architecture-specific man pages only raises a number of
problems:

* The https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi is incomplete. As an
example, it does not show results for pae(4). The reason for this is
that the cgi interface runs on FreeBSD amd64.

* In FreeBSD amd64 some manual pages have broken X-refs. See hptrr(4)
for an example.

* Also, we have broken links in our Release Notes. This is a
consequence of the first point. See
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/hardware/#proc-i386.

Make MAN_ARCH default to 'all' so we build all the man pages for all the
architectures. The difference in disk space is negligible. Also link
architecture-specific man pages to their own section while keeping their own
namespace.
