mdoc: move CAVEATS, BUGS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections to the
bottom of the manpages and order them consistently.

GNU groff doesn't care about the ordering, and doesn't even mention
CAVEATS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS as common sections and where to put
them.

Build usr.bin/ with WARNS=6 by default.

Also add some missing $FreeBSD$ to keep svn happy.

Add notes pointing out that bsdiff does not store file hashes and
bspatch thus does not verify file hashes, and that consequently it
is recommended that users store hashes separately and verify files
before and after running bspatch.

Add bsdiff and bspatch to the base system. These are tools for
constructing and applying binary patches; in particular, they perform
well (in the sense of constructing small patches) for executable code.
Both portsnap (coming to the base system Real Soon Now) and FreeBSD
Update (coming to the base system a bit later) use bspatch.

This is the same code as the bsdiff-4.2 which has been in the ports
tree (misc/bsdiff) for the past year, with the following exceptions:
1. The license is now the traditional 2-clause BSD;
2. Instead of forking and execing bzip2, the code now uses libbz2; and
3. Some minor changes have been made to fit this code into the base
system (adding $FreeBSD$ tags, putting bsdiff and bspatch into separate
directories, etc.)

This code is rather ugly and has lots of style bugs (mostly because I
wrote it before I had ever heard of style(9)). Some day I'll come
back and clean it up.
