Support in fsck_ffs and stub in fsck_xxx.
Push a few more messages through pwarn() instead of printf() to ensure

 1.28  25-Feb-2003  wiz .Nm does not need a dummy argument ("") before punctuation or
for correct formatting of the SYNOPSIS any longer.
 1.27  01-Oct-2002  wiz New sentence, new line. By Robert Elz with minimal fixes.
 1.26  20-Dec-2001  soren Sync getopt() / man page with actual getopt options.
 1.25  16-Nov-2001  wiz Sort SEE ALSO.
 1.24  18-Jun-2001  lukem - Don't attempt to fsck a file system that is mounted read-write unless -f
(force) is given. fsck(8) will return with a zero exit status if "fsck -p"
is used in this circumstance, but all other invocations (e.g, "fsck",
"fsck /filesystem", "fsck -p /filesystem") will return with a non-zero exit
status in this circumstance.
Per discussions with various people including Bill Sommerfeld.
- Use "file system" instead of "filesystem"
 1.23  18-Jun-2001  lukem -d is always compiled in; there's no specific #define to remove it
 1.22  05-Jun-2001  wiz Drop arguments of .Os.
 1.21  03-Apr-2001  wiz Xref exit 3, not 2. Whitespace fixes while I'm here.
 1.20  07-Mar-2001  fair Clarify the description of "preen" mode, per PR 12110
 1.19  10-Mar-1999  erh branches: 1.19.12;
Add missing .El
 1.18  07-Mar-1999  mycroft Clean up SYNOPSIS formatting.
 1.17  09-Nov-1996  perry Fix more cosmetic problems -- changed .Nm fsck to just .Nm (thats the
whole point of the .Nm macro), replaced naked "fsck"s with .Nm's,
fixed another "the the", and .Dq'ed the "no" in the -t
description. Note that the description of -t is still ambiguous --
needs to be cleaned up by someone like Christos that actually knows it
well.
 1.16  09-Nov-1996  lukem fixed typos, from SAITOH Masanobu <msaitoh@spa.is.uec.ac.jp> in [misc/2924]
 1.15  22-Oct-1996  christos - Move some pieces from the fsck_ffs manual page that are appropriate for
fsck now.
- Correct the usage.
 1.14  03-Oct-1996  christos Document -f flag.
 1.13  23-Sep-1996  christos - added -T fstype:fsoptions per cgd's suggestion.
- handle parallelism in preening here using the original preening code from
fsck_ffs.
- move common code from fsck_ffs and fsck_msdos here.
 1.12  11-Sep-1996  christos New version of filesystem independent fsck(8) program similar to mount(8).
 1.11  05-Apr-1996  cgd check in changes proposed in PR 2006 (approved by J.T.), to rename fsck
to fsck_ffs, so that in the future 'fsck' can be a wrapper than invokes
appropriate filesystem-specific checker programs. For now, the only
user-visible change is that the names have changed in the manual page
and in error messages; fsck and fsck.8 are now links to fsck_ffs and
fsck_ffs.8, until the rest of the transition is complete.
 1.10  12-Jul-1995  cgd implement a 'force check' flag, '-f'. I used the SunOS name, but the Digital
semantics. now:
(1) dirty file systems will always be checked; nothing new there.
(2) if not '-f' clean file systems will _NEVER_ be checked,
i.e. they won't be checked even if -p isn't specified. This
allows one to 'fsck -p ; fsck' to preen, then clean up
anything that 'fsck -p' barfs on, without waiting for the
clean file systems to be checked again.
(3) if '-f' clean file systems will ALWAYS be checked. This
allows people to put 'fsck -fp' into /etc/rc on systems
where they're leery of the FS clean flag state, need
the extra reliability, and can afford time 'wasted'
in checks.
The assumption made here is that if a file system is marked clean, it
_IS CLEAN_, really, and shouldn't be checked unless fsck is explicitly
told to (with -f). This should be a valid assumption, but may not be in
the presence of file system bugs. Documentation updated to note '-f'.
