sched_setscheduler(2): Change realtime privilege check

Check for privilege PRIV_SCHED_SETPOLICY instead of PRIV_SCHED_SET, to
at least make it coherent with what is done at thread creation when
a realtime policy is requested, and have users authorized by
mac_priority(4) pass it.

This change is good enough in practice since it only allows 'root' (as
before) and mac_priority(4)'s authorized users in (the point of this
change), without other side effects. More changes in this area, to
generally ensure that all privilege checks are consistent, are going to
come as olce's priority revamp project lands.

(olce: Expanded the explanations.)

spdx: initial adoption of licensing ID tags.

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.

Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

In preparation for switching linuxulator to the use the native 1:1
threads refactor kern_sched_rr_get_interval() and sys_sched_rr_get_interval().
Add a kern_sched_rr_get_interval() counterpart which takes a targettd
parameter to allow specify target thread directly by callee (new Linuxulator).

Linuxulator temporarily uses first thread in proc.

Move linux_sched_rr_get_interval() to the MI part.

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.
