Add a simple scripting facility to DDB(4), allowing the user to
define a set of named scripts. Each script consists of a list of DDB
commands separated by ";"s that will be executed verbatim. No higher
level language constructs, such as branching, are provided for:
scripts are executed by sequentially injecting commands into the DDB
input buffer.

Four new commands are present in DDB: "run" to run a specific script,
"script" to define or print a script, "scripts" to list currently
defined scripts, and "unscript" to delete a script, modeled on shell
alias commands. Scripts may also be manipulated using sysctls in the
debug.ddb.scripting MIB space, although users will prefer to use the
soon-to-be-added ddb(8) tool for usability reasons.

Scripts with certain names are automatically executed on various DDB
events, such as entering the debugger via a panic, a witness error,
watchdog, breakpoint, sysctl, serial break, etc, allowing customized
handling.
