symlink(7): Add lpathconf(2) and *at system calls.

MFC after: 1 week


# 207188 25-Apr-2010 jilles

symlink(7): The ownership of symlinks is used by the system,
in at least three ways, so do not say it is ignored:
* who may delete/rename a symlink in a sticky directory
* who may do lchflags(2)/lchown(2)/lchmod(2)
* whose inode quota is charged

# 57669 01-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
