Neither netstart's nor install.sub's (subtly different) implementations
remove trailing comments on lines not starting as a comment, e.g.,
lines like "up #not down" go through unaltered and without "#not down"
being removed.
Only lines *beginning* with the comment sign ("#") are stripped.
No functional change, just updating function descriptions.
ifstart() should always pass such lines unaltered, especially if they
contain "nwid" or "description" lines with arbitrary strings.
<bsdlisten at gmail dot com> reported SSIDs such as "Mike's" during
installation end as broken; this was because the installer escaped
the single quote using backslashes which ended up being treated as
escape characters much later during hostname.if parsing in netstart(8).

but additionally have a bootblock in the first 8K (since UFS does not use that
space). There are some UEFI direct-from-internet bootloaders that require
the name *.img. So this makes things more convenient for those, while keeping
it consistant in all architectures.

same time, try to make the format for FILES more consistent;

delete a bogus remark that maybe referred to a long-gone
implementation in VAX assembly code.
Much more could be improved, but i don't want to waste too much time here.
In autonomous systems running bgpd(8) and rpki-client(8) on their edge
routers, it may be beneficial when out-of-the-box all routers don't all
do rpki fetches & bgp loads at the same time. It is expected behavior
for RPKI information to un-evenly percolate towards the BGP edge in a
staggered way.
The 'once an hour' pace may be a reasonable balance between the needs of
internet users, and what network operators tolerate in churn.

The API exposes controls of modern audio hardware and sndiod software
volume knobs in a uniform way. Hardware knobs are exposed through
sndiod. Multiple programs may use the controls at the same time
without the need to continuously scan the controls.
For now sndiod exposes only its own controls and the master output and
input volumes of the underlying hardware (if any), i.e. those
typically exposed by acpi volume keys.

This is needed in case a foobar fails to start but still returns 0. Changing its
flags (in rc.conf.local) would then get ignored because of this cache (which is
around to handle stop/check/reload on flags changes).
