In order to maximize the re-usability of kernel code in user space this
patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.

Create a global thread hash table to speed up thread lookup, use
rwlock to protect the table. In old code, thread lookup is done with
process lock held, to find a thread, kernel has to iterate through
process and thread list, this is quite inefficient.
With this change, test shows in extreme case performance is
dramatically improved.

Remove VOP_LEASE and supporting functions. This hasn't been used since
the removal of NQNFS, but was left in in case it was required for NFSv4.
Since our new NFSv4 client and server can't use it for their
requirements, GC the old mechanism, as well as other unused lease-
related code and interfaces.

Due to its impact on kernel programming and binary interfaces, this
change should not be MFC'd.

Remove MAC Framework access control check entry points made redundant with
the introduction of priv(9) and MAC Framework entry points for privilege
checking/granting. These entry points exactly aligned with privileges and
provided no additional security context:

- mac_check_sysarch_ioperm()
- mac_check_kld_unload()
- mac_check_settime()
- mac_check_system_nfsd()

Add mpo_priv_check() implementations to Biba and LOMAC policies, which,
for each privilege, determine if they can be granted to processes
considered unprivileged by those two policies. These mostly, but not
entirely, align with the set of privileges granted in jails.
