Remove support for sending status reports to syslog on SIGINFO;
we have ntpctl now and ntpd doesn't need redundant/obsolete features.

Remove the bogus author "U. Delaware" from RFC 5905
as noticed by Arto Jonsson <ajonsson at kapsi dot fi>.
While here, give the full author names, which costs no additional work
because i had to cross-check against the original documents anyway.

ntpd does not require you to run rdate -n before it -- it notices such an
event. so don't use the word "before" .. and leave the mention ambigious

we do not do -s in /etc/rc anymore. this is because, even if -s did try to
do it's job it would have to choose between two cases:
1. either it would take a very long time to get the correct adjustment, thus,
if you are not currently on the net right, you wait a long time (or must
type ^C, which is ridiculous)
2. ntpd could be modified to "abort early", but then would not meet the
promise made by -s in the manual page (note: it does not say that it
"tries")
therefore, -s and -S must become user choices. Sorry. This same choice is
made in lots of other places

add a new -s option, that tells ntpd to set the time using settimeofday()
once at startup. ntpd delays daemonizing until it has done the intial
time setting (or ran into the timeout) in this mode to make sure stuff started
later in rc is not subject to time jumps.
this eleminates the need to run rdate -n beforehands.
