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.

Add an NFSv4.1 mount option for "use one openowner".

Some NFSv4.1 servers such as AmazonEFS can only support a small fixed number
of open_owner4s. This patch adds a mount option called "oneopenown" that
can be used for NFSv4.1 mounts to make the client do all Opens with the
same open_owner4 string. This option can only be used with NFSv4.1 and
may not work correctly when Delegations are is use.

For software builds, the NFS client does many small
synchronous (with FILE_SYNC) writes because non-contiguous
byte ranges in the same buffer cache block are being
written. This patch adds a new mount option "noncontigwr"
which allows the non-contiguous byte ranges to be combined,
with the dirty byte range becoming the superset of the bytes
that are dirty, if the file has not been file locked.
This reduces the number of writes significantly for software
builds. The only case where this change might break existing
applications is where an application is writing
non-overlapping byte ranges within the same buffer cache block
of a file from multiple clients concurrently.
Since such an application would normally do file locking on
the file, avoiding the byte range merge for files that have
been file locked should be sufficient for most (maybe all?) cases.

Move the NFSv4.1 client patches over from projects/nfsv4.1-client
to head. I don't think the NFS client behaviour will change unless
the new "minorversion=1" mount option is used. It includes basic
NFSv4.1 support plus support for pNFS using the Files Layout only.
All problems detecting during an NFSv4.1 Bakeathon testing event
in June 2012 have been resolved in this code and it has been tested
against the NFSv4.1 server available to me.
Although not reviewed, I believe that kib@ has looked at it.

Modify the experimental NFS client so that it uses the same
"struct nfs_args" as the regular NFS client. This is needed
so that the old mount(2) syscall will work and it makes
sharing of the diskless NFS root code easier. Eary in the
porting exercise I introduced a new revision of nfs_args, but
didn't actually need it, thanks to nmount(2). I re-introduced the
NFSMNT_KERB flag, since it does essentially the same thing and
the old one would not have been used because it never worked.
I also added a few new NFSMNT_xxx flags to sys/nfsclient/nfs_args.h
that are used by the experimental NFS client.

Fix a serious deadlock with the NFS client. Given a large enough
atomic write request, it can fill the buffer cache with the entirety
of that write in order to handle retries. However, it never drops
the vnode lock, or else it wouldn't be atomic, so it ends up waiting
indefinitely for more buf memory that cannot be gotten as it has it
all, and it waits in an uncancellable state.

To fix this, hibufspace is exported and scaled to a reasonable
fraction. This is used as the limit of how much of an atomic write
request by the NFS client will be handled asynchronously. If the
request is larger than this, it will be turned into a synchronous
request which won't deadlock the system. It's possible this value is
far off from what is required by some, so it shall be tunable as soon
as mount_nfs(8) learns of the new field.

The slowdown between an asynchronous and a synchronous write on NFS
appears to be on the order of 2x-4x.
