Include npf_boot rc.d scripts which loads an interim config early in boot.
By default /etc/default/npf.boot.conf which can be overriden by /etc/npf.boot.conf.

Fix for problematic paths in /etc/daily and /etc/security reported in
PR/47645.

Add a separate file which contains the paths for the pkg_admin and
pkg_info utilities. This is called /etc/pkgpath.conf (to distinguish it
from pkg.conf).

Thanks also to Edgar Fuss for the sanity check.

Arch-specific rc.conf files are not really autonomous rc.conf
files, they are appended to the end of etc/defaults/rc.conf.

So rename them to rc.conf.append for clarity, as suggested by mrg@. Adapt
Makefile accordingly.

Modify etc/defaults/Makefile so that architectures can specify an additional
rc.conf file. This one should reside under etc/etc.${MACHINE}/, and will
get automatically appended to etc/defaults/rc.conf at build time if present.

This is used by i386 and amd64 to append a small MD rc.conf(5) configuration
at the end of the defaults/rc.conf file, so that powerd(8) can be started
by default when we are running in a Xen environment. This is needed to support
save/restore functions for domains.

From all the alternatives proposed to fix that issue (from /etc/rc.conf
parsing in postinstall to etc/defaults/rc.conf arch-hooks) I believe
this one will appease everyone because it:
- does not touch etc/defaults/rc.conf template file,
- patches it at build time for MD hooks only when required,
- does not need to parse/modify a user-specified file like /etc/rc.conf (which
is a complex, error-prone operation),
- only enables powerd(8) by default when conditions are met (Xen environment)
while still allowing root to shoot himself in the foot if he wants to
override this manually in /etc/rc.conf.

Consistently use CONFIGFILES & CONFIGLINKS (which enable the 'configinstall'
target) instead of using home-grown 'distribution' targets or using
FILES with the 'install' target.
Add some etc/ subdir Makefiles where appropriate.

XXX: some of etc/Makefile install-etc-files could be converted to CONFIGFILES.

- in <bsd.files.mk>, don't clear FILES after using it, as that prevents
make -V FILES
from being useful (and given that every other variable can be
extracted using make -V, the behaviour was unusually inconsistent
given that the original reason for clearing it doesn't seem to be
relevant anymore)
- use <bsd.prog.mk> instead of directly including <bsd.files.mk>
(and possibly <bsd.man.mk> or <bsd.own.mk>)
- remove obsolete NOPROG

move default config files from /etc/default -> /etc/defaults, to be
consistent with what FreeBSD uses /etc/defaults for and since SVR4
uses /etc/default for another purpose. as discussed on tech-userlevel,
and no objections were made.
