makemandb(8): Fix static build with PROGDPLIBS.

XXX This shouldn't have to mention transitive dependencies -- we
should have a mechanism for upstream build goo for libarchive to
transmit the information automatically to downstream build goo for
makemandb.

Revert addition of pthread dependency on sqlite.

It is less trivial than expected and introduced some surprising breakage.

sqlite: do not build without multithreading support

at least a few pkgsrc packages avoid base sqlite because it fails
this check, and it's probably a surprising performance penalty for
unsuspecting users

Add a custom tokenizer which does not stem certain keywords.

Which keywords should not be stemmed is specified in the nostem.txt file.
(Right now I have taken all the man page names, split them if they had
underscores, removed common English words and converted everything to
lowercase.)

The tokenizer itself is based on the Porter stemming tokenizer shipped with
Sqlite. The code in custom_apropos_tokenizer.c is copy of that code with
some modifications to prevent stemming keywords specified in nostem.txt.

Additionally, it now uses underscore `_' also as a token delimiter. Therefore,
now it's possible to do query for `lwp' and all `_lwp_*' man page names
will be matched. Or the query can be `unconst' and `__UNCONST' will be matched.
This was not possible earlier, because underscore was not a delimiter and therefore
the index would have __UNCONST as a key rather than UNCONST.

The tokenizer needs fts3_tokenizer.h file, which is not shipped with the
amalgamation build of Sqlite, therefore it needs to be added here (unless
we decide there is a better place for it).

To enforce using the new tokenizer, a schema version bump is needed

Since the tokenization is done both at the indexing time (via makemandb) and
also while query time (via apropos or whatis), it will be needed to bump
the schema version everytime nostem.txt is modified. Otherwise the
index will consist of old tokens and desired changes will not be seen with
apropos.

This should also fix the issue reported in PR bin/46255. Similar suggestion was
also made on tech-userlevel@ recently:
<http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-userlevel/2017/06/08/msg010620.html>

Thanks to christos@ for multiple rounds of reviews of the tokenizer code.

# 1.8 21-May-2017 riastradh

Remove MKCRYPTO option.

Originally, MKCRYPTO was introduced because the United States
classified cryptography as a munition and restricted its export. The
export controls were substantially relaxed fifteen years ago, and are
essentially irrelevant for software with published source code.

In the intervening time, nobody bothered to remove the option after
its motivation -- the US export restriction -- was eliminated. I'm
not aware of any other operating system that has a similar option; I
expect it is mainly out of apathy for churn that we still have it.
Today, cryptography is an essential part of modern computing -- you
can't use the internet responsibly without cryptography.

The position of the TNF board of directors is that TNF makes no
representation that MKCRYPTO=no satisfies any country's cryptography
regulations.

My personal position is that the availability of cryptography is a
basic human right; that any local laws restricting it to a privileged
few are fundamentally immoral; and that it is wrong for developers to
spend effort crippling cryptography to work around such laws.

As proposed on tech-crypto, tech-security, and tech-userlevel to no
objections:

https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-crypto/2017/05/06/msg000719.html
https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-security/2017/05/06/msg000928.html
https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-userlevel/2017/05/06/msg010547.html

P.S. Reviewing all the uses of MKCRYPTO in src revealed a lot of
*bad* crypto that was conditional on it, e.g. DES in telnet... That
should probably be removed too, but on the grounds that it is bad,
not on the grounds that it is (nominally) crypto.

Make mandb path configurable. makemandb (and related tools) use
the path from the _mandb variable from man.conf now.

Set _mandb in man.conf to same value as was used before.

Import the new apropos/whatis.

This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.

The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.
