Add some FEATURE macros for various GEOM classes.

No FreeBSD version bump, the userland application to query the features will
be committed last and can serve as an indication of the availablility if

Add support for dumping kernel to gconcat.
Dumping goes to the component, where dump partition begins.

MFC r197898:

If provider is open for writing when we taste it, skip it for classes that
depend on on-disk metadata. This was we won't attach to providers that are used
by other classes. For example we don't want to configure partitions on da0 if
it is part of gmirror, what we really want is partitions on mirror/foo.

During regular work it works like this: if provider is open for writing a class
receives the spoiled event from GEOM and detaches, once provider is closed the
taste event is send again and class can rediscover its metadata if it is still
there. This doesn't work that way when new class arrives, because GEOM gives
all existing providers for it to taste, also those open for writing. Classes
have to decided on their own if they want to deal with such providers (eg.
geom_dev) or not (classes modified by this commit).

Normalize a significant number of kernel malloc type names:

- Prefer '_' to ' ', as it results in more easily parsed results in
memory monitoring tools such as vmstat.

- Remove punctuation that is incompatible with using memory type names
as file names, such as '/' characters.

- Disambiguate some collisions by adding subsystem prefixes to some
memory types.

- Generally prefer lower case to upper case.

- If the same type is defined in multiple architecture directories,
attempt to use the same name in additional cases.

Not all instances were caught in this change, so more work is required to
finish this conversion. Similar changes are required for UMA zone names.

- Add md_provsize field to metadata, which will help with
shared-last-sector problem.
After this change, even if there is more than one provider with the same
last sector, the proper one will be chosen based on its size.
It still doesn't fix the 'c' partition problem (when da0s1 can be confused
with da0s1c) and situation when 'a' partition starts at offset 0
(then da0s1a can be confused with da0s1 and da0s1c). One can use '-h'
option there, when creating device or avoid sharing last sector.
Actually, when providers share the same last sector and their size is equal,
they provide exactly the same data, so the name (da0s1, da0s1a, da0s1c)
isn't important at all.
- Provide backward compatibility.
- Update copyright's year.
