p9fs.5: rename to p9fs.4

This is a filesystem (driver), not a file format, so it should be in
section 4.

Add an implementation of the 9P filesystem

This is derived from swills@ fork of the Juniper virtfs with many
changes by me including bug fixes, style improvements, clearer layering
and more consistent logging. The filesystem is renamed to p9fs to better
reflect its function and to prevent possible future confusion with
virtio-fs.

Several updates and fixes from Juniper have been integrated into this
version by Val Packett and these contributions along with the original
Juniper authors are credited below.

To use this with bhyve, add 'virtio_p9fs_load=YES' to loader.conf. The
bhyve virtio-9p device allows access from the guest to files on the host
by mapping a 'sharename' to a host path. It is possible to use p9fs as a
root filesystem by adding this to /boot/loader.conf:

vfs.root.mountfrom="p9fs:sharename"

for non-root filesystems add something like this to /etc/fstab:

sharename /mnt p9fs rw 0 0

In both examples, substitute the share name used on the bhyve command
line.

The 9P filesystem protocol relies on stateful file opens which map
protocol-level FIDs to host file descriptors. The FreeBSD vnode
interface doesn't really support this and we use heuristics to guess the
right FID to use for file operations. This can be confused by privilege
lowering and does not guarantee that the FID created for a given file
open is always used for file operations, even if the calling process is
using the file descriptor from the original open call. Improving this
would involve changes to the vnode interface which is out-of-scope for
this import.

Create /etc/os-release file.

Each boot, regenerate /var/run/os-release based on the currently running
system. Create a /etc/os-release symlink pointing to this file (so that this
doesn't create a new reason /etc can not be mounted read-only).

This is compatible with what other systems do and is what the sysutil/os-release
port attempted to do, but in an incomplete way. Linux, Solaris and DragonFly all
implement this natively as well. The complete standard can be found at
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/os-release.html

Moving this to the base solves both the non-standard location problem with the
port, as well as the lack of update of this file on system update.

Remove NAND and NANDFS support

NANDFS has been broken for years. Remove it. The NAND drivers that
remain are for ancient parts that are no longer relevant. They are
polled, have terrible performance and just for ancient arm
hardware. NAND parts have evolved significantly from this early work
and little to none of it would be relevant should someone need to
update to support raw nand. This code has been off by default for
years and has violated the vnode protocol leading to panics since it
was committed.
