Simply things so that "#REQUIRE: FILESYSTEMS" means the file
systems are fully "ready to go".

'FILESYSTEMS' states: "This is a dummy dependency, for services which
require file systems to be mounted before starting." However, we have
'var' which is was run after 'FILESYSTEMS' and can mount /var if it
already isn't mounted. Furthermore, several scripts cannot use /var
until 'cleanvar' has done its thing. Thus "FILESYSTEMS" hasn't really
meant all critical file systems are fully usable.

Avoid using BEFORE in the utx rc script.

# 231534 11-Feb-2012 ed

Move utmpx handling out of init(8).

This has the following advantages:

- During boot, the BOOT_TIME record is now written right after the file
systems become writable, but before users are allowed to log in. This
means that they can't cause `hidden logins' by logging in right before
init(8) kicks in.

- The pututxline(3) function may potentially block on file locking,
though this is very rare to occur. By placing it in an rc script, the
user can still kill it with ^C if needed.

- Most importantly: jails don't use init(8). This means that a force
reboot of a system running jails will leave stale entries in the
accounting database of the jails individually.
