libc: link libsys as a auxiliary filter library

At runtime, when rtld loads libc it will also load libsys. For each
symbol that is present in both, the libsys one will override the libc
one. It continues to be the case that program need only link against
libc (usually implicitly). The linkage to libsys is automatic.

stand/lua: always allow overriding with local config files

stand/lua: always allow overriding with local config files

Loader now also read configuration files listed in local_loader_conf_files.
Files listed here are the last ones read. And /boot/loader.conf.local was
moved from loader_conf_files to local_loader_conf_files leaving only
loader.conf and device.hints in loader_conf_files by default.

The idea is to ensure local_loader_conf_files, i.e., /boot/loader.conf.local,
can always be used to override other user defined settings.

So the sequencing is now as follow:

1. Bootstrap:
/boot/defaults/loader.conf

2. Read loader_conf_files files:
/boot/device.hints
/boot/loader.conf

3. Read loader_conf_dirs files:
/boot/loader.conf.d/*.conf

4. And finally, rread local_loader_conf_files files:
/boot/loader.conf.local

stand: bandaide for acpi

Old binaries do not set acpi.rsdp early enough. So when we boot with an
older loader.efi from an ESP that's not been updated, we assume there's
no ACPI on this system. This is unwise. Put a band-aide on this until we
can implement a proper 'feature' variable that the binary reports so we
can do conditionals for things like this in the future.

This is at best a rapid-response stop-gap.

Revert "awk: Merge upstream 2nd Edition Awk Book"

The pre-push testing I did turned out to be testing the old version with
the old testsuite (for reasons I don't understnad). There's issues with
the new version, the new test in the suite or (likely) both. Revert
until they can be chased down.

This should also fix the github CI that's gone red since this commit.

ino64: Remove 'forward compat' code for this

Forward compatibility code was added for running newer ino64 binaries on
older kernels as a transition aide. Now that ino64 has been in the tree
6 years, this code is no longer useful and should have been removed long
ago. Remove it now. Should be no user-visible changes at this point as
all the 'upgrade' scenarios it was intended for are long since past.

Also need to remove this stuff from rtld since the _foo versions
no longer exist.
