devmatch: don't announce autoloading so much

devmatch rc script would announce it was loading a module multiple
times. It used kldload -n so it really wasn't loading it that many
times, but the message is confusing. Use kldstat to see if we need to
load the module before saying we do. This fixes the vast majority of the
problems. It may be possible to race devmatch with a user invocation and
devd, though quite hard. In that case we'll announce things twice, but
still only load it once. No attempt is made to fix this.

We document that we did not need .ko on the module names in

the same, but strip the .ko when we need to use the names so you can
specify either.

devmatch loads a number of things automatically. Allow the list of
things to load to happen first in case those drivers affect what would
be loaded. Normally, this will produce the same results, but there's
some special cases that may not when drivers are loaded that report
other drivers missing, like virtio_pci.

Move the devmatch rc.d script before netif in the boot process.

Prior to this change, using lagg to aggregate wired and wireless networks
was broken in the (relatively common) case where wifi drivers + firmware
are loaded by devmatch, since the interface didn't exist at the time when
the lagg interface was being created.

Move the rc framework out of sbin/init into libexec/rc.

The reasons for this are forward looking to pkgbase:
* /sbin/init is a special binary; try not to replace it with
every package update because an rc script was touched.
(a follow-up commit will make init its own package)
* having rc in its own place will allow more easy replacement
of the rc framework with alternatives, such as openrc.
