sys: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

In ddb ps, left justify the non-numeric fields 'state' and 'wmesg' and
the fixed-width numeric field 'wchan', as in ps(1). They were sort
of centered, although the template shows 'state' as right-justified.
The `wmesg' field very rarely has a prefix of '*' (for lock names)
that is still to the left of the header, and the width of this field
is reduced from 8 to 7 (more than 6 is an error).

The 'wmesg' and 'wchan' fields are still misnamed and poorly handled.
They are named sort of backwards relative to ps(1):
- wmesg in ddb = mwchan in ps
- wmesg in ddb = wchan in ps (if it is a wait channel name, not a lock name)
- wchan in ddb = nwchan in ps
ddb ps wastes lots of space for the unimportant 'wchan' field (20
columns altogether on 64-bit arches). ps(1) documents using a
compressed format, but the compression only omits leading nybbles of
0 so it has neveqr worked on arches that put the kernel in the top half
of the address space. It just avoids wasting space for an 0x prefix.

Rewrite subr_sleepqueue.c use of callouts to not depend on the
specifics of callout KPI. Esp., do not depend on the exact interface
of callout_stop(9) return values.

The main change is that instead of requiring precise callouts, code
maintains absolute time to wake up. Callouts now should ensure that a
wake occurs at the requested moment, but we can tolerate both run-away
callout, and callout_stop(9) lying about running callout either way.

As consequence, it removes the constant source of the bugs where
sleepq_check_timeout() causes uninterruptible thread state where the
thread is detached from CPU, see e.g. r234952 and r296320.

Patch also removes dual meaning of the TDF_TIMEOUT flag, making code
(IMO much) simpler to reason about.

Make kstack_pages a tunable on arm, x86, and powepc. On i386, the
initial thread stack is not adjusted by the tunable, the stack is
allocated too early to get access to the kernel environment. See
TD0_KSTACK_PAGES for the thread0 stack sizing on i386.

The tunable was tested on x86 only. From the visual inspection, it
seems that it might work on arm and powerpc. The arm
USPACE_SVC_STACK_TOP and powerpc USPACE macros seems to be already
incorrect for the threads with non-default kstack size. I only
changed the macros to use variable instead of constant, since I cannot
test.

On arm64, mips and sparc64, some static data structures are sized by
KSTACK_PAGES, so the tunable is disabled.

Fix KSTACK_PAGES issue when the default value was changed in KERNCONF

If KSTACK_PAGES was changed to anything alse than the default,
the value from param.h was taken instead in some places and

inconsistency which caused corruption in SMP envorinment.

Ensure all places where KSTACK_PAGES are used the opt_kstack_pages.h
is included.

The file opt_kstack_pages.h could not be included in param.h
because was breaking the toolchain compilation.
