Remove LINK_MAX.

After recent changes to change filesystems to use filesystem-specific
limits, LINK_MAX is no longer used in the base system. Applications
should in theory be able to cope with a lack of LINK_MAX by using
pathconf().

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.

Rework the credential code to support larger values of NGROUPS and
NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)

The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.

Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.

Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.

Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

arm and powerpc have 64KB as the maximum argument size, so one

special-casing powerpc and give it 256KB of arguments like all
other platforms, but keep arm on 64KB for now. There may be a
purpose to it that doesn't exist for powerpc.

netchild's mega-patch to isolate compiler dependencies into a central
place.

This moves the dependency on GCC's and other compiler's features into
the central sys/cdefs.h file, while the individual source files can
then refer to #ifdef __COMPILER_FEATURE_FOO where they by now used to
refer to #if __GNUC__ > 3.1415 && __BARC__ <= 42.

By now, GCC and ICC (the Intel compiler) have been actively tested on
IA32 platforms by netchild. Extension to other compilers is supposed
to be possible, of course.

For non-embedded platforms, increase the size of the argument list.
Note that this results in more kernel virtual memory being reserved for
temporary storage of the args. The args temporary space is allocated out

These are changes to allow to use the Intel C/C++ compiler (lang/icc)

Most of the changes are just adding __INTEL_COMPILER to #ifdef's, as

Incarnations of this patch survive gcc compiles since a loooong time,
I use it on my desktop. An icc compiled kernel works since Nov. 2003
(exceptions: snd_* if used as modules), it survives a build of the
entire ports collection with icc.
