Officially since C11 (and in reality FreeBSD since 3.0 with commit
1b46cb523d) errno has been defined to be a macro. Rename the symbol
to __libsys_errno and move it to FBSDprivate_1.0 and confine it entierly
to libsys for use by libthr. Add a FBSD_1.0 compat symbol for existing
binaries that were incorrectly linked to the errno symbol during
libc.so.7's lifetime.
This deliberately breaks linking software that directly links to errno.
Such software is broken and will fail in surprising ways if it becomes
threaded (e.g., if it triggers loading of a pam or nss module that
uses threads.)

This declares an API for libsys which currently consists of
__sys_<foo>() declarations for system call stubs and function pointer
typedefs of the form __sys_<foo>_t. The vast majority of the
implementation resides in a generated _libsys.h which ensures that all
system call stub declarations match syscalls.master.

so that libc/libthr do not preempt libsys symbols, esp. errno-related.
The issue is, if libsys is linked with DT_BIND_NOW flag, and then loaded
as filter, rtld tries to relocate its PLT symbols immediately, not as
filter. There, during symbol lookup, rtld finds filtering symbols in
libc, and since libc is in loading filters mode, the resolution stops
there. The end result is that libsys links to libc.

Continue to filter the public interface (elf_aux_info()), but entierly
relocate the private interfaces (_elf_aux_info(),
__init_elf_aux_vector(), and __elf_aux_vector) to libsys.
This ensures that rtld updates the correct (only) copy of
__elf_aux_vector. After 968a18975a
updates were confused and __getosreldate was failing, causing
the system to fall back to compat compat12 syscalls in some cases.
Return to explicitly linking libc to libsys and link libthr with libc
and libsys (in that order).

In initial hacking I'd bluntly disabled manpage installation in libsys,
then later disabled them for libc, but forgot to fix the former leading
to no syscall manapages.

Declare in sys/umtx.h and implement in libsys. Explicitly link libthr
with libsys.
When building libthr static include _umtx_op_err so we don't break static
linkage with -lpthread.

libsys provides the FreeBSD kernel interface (auxargs, system calls,
vdso). It can be linked directly for programs using a non-standard
libc and will later be linked as a filter library to libc providing
the actual system call implementation.
