FreeBSD'fy ZFS zlib zalloc/zfree callbacks.

The previous code came from OpenSolaris, which in my understanding require
allocation size to be known to free memory. To store that size previous
code allocated additional 8 byte header. But I have noticed that zlib
with present settings allocates 64KB context buffers for each call, that
could be efficiently cached by UMA, but addition of those 8 bytes makes
them fall back to physical RAM allocations, that cause huge overhead and
lock congestion on small blocks. Since FreeBSD's free() does not have
the size argument, switching to it solves the problem, increasing write
speed to ZVOLs with 4KB block size and GZIP compression on my 40-threads
test system from ~60MB/s to ~600MB/s.

Allow Kernel to link in both legacy libkern/zlib and new sys/contrib/zlib,
with an eventual goal to convert all legacl zlib callers to the new zlib
version:

* Move generic zlib shims that are not specific to zlib 1.0.4 to
sys/dev/zlib.
* Connect new zlib (1.2.11) to the zlib kernel module, currently built
with Z_SOLO.
* Prefix the legacy zlib (1.0.4) with 'zlib104_' namespace.
* Convert sys/opencrypto/cryptodeflate.c to use new zlib.
* Remove bundled zlib 1.2.3 from ZFS and adapt it to new zlib and make
it depend on the zlib module.
* Fix Z_SOLO build of new zlib.

Update ZFS from version 6 to 13 and bring some FreeBSD-specific changes.

This bring huge amount of changes, I'll enumerate only user-visible changes:

- Delegated Administration

Allows regular users to perform ZFS operations, like file system
creation, snapshot creation, etc.

- L2ARC

Level 2 cache for ZFS - allows to use additional disks for cache.
Huge performance improvements mostly for random read of mostly
static content.

- slog

Allow to use additional disks for ZFS Intent Log to speed up
operations like fsync(2).

- vfs.zfs.super_owner

Allows regular users to perform privileged operations on files stored
on ZFS file systems owned by him. Very careful with this one.

- chflags(2)

Not all the flags are supported. This still needs work.

- ZFSBoot

Support to boot off of ZFS pool. Not finished, AFAIK.

Submitted by: dfr

- Snapshot properties

- New failure modes

Before if write requested failed, system paniced. Now one
can select from one of three failure modes:
- panic - panic on write error
- wait - wait for disk to reappear
- continue - serve read requests if possible, block write requests

- Refquota, refreservation properties

Just quota and reservation properties, but don't count space consumed
by children file systems, clones and snapshots.

- Sparse volumes

ZVOLs that don't reserve space in the pool.

- External attributes

Compatible with extattr(2).

- NFSv4-ACLs

Not sure about the status, might not be complete yet.

Submitted by: trasz

- Creation-time properties

- Regression tests for zpool(8) command.
