Standalone SX shims

Create a do-nothing version of SX locks. OpenZFS needs them. However,
since the boot loader is single threaded, they can be nops.

sx: retire SX_NOADAPTIVE

The flag is not used by anything for years and supporting it requires an
explicit read from the lock when entering slow path.

Flag value is left unused on purpose.

sx: port over writer starvation prevention measures from rwlock

A constant stream of readers could completely starve writers and this is not
a hypothetical scenario.

The 'poll2_threads' test from the will-it-scale suite reliably starves writers
even with concurrency < 10 threads.

The problem was run into and diagnosed by dillon@backplane.com

There was next to no change in lock contention profile during -j 128 pkg build,
despite an sx lock being at the top.

sys/sys: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

sx: uninline slock/sunlock

Shared locking routines explicitly read the value and test it. If the
change attempt fails, they fall back to a regular function which would
retry in a loop.

The problem is that with many concurrent readers the risk of failure is pretty
high and even the value returned by fcmpset is very likely going to be stale
by the time the loop in the fallback routine is reached.

Uninline said primitives. It gives a throughput increase when doing concurrent
slocks/sunlocks with 80 hardware threads from ~50 mln/s to ~56 mln/s.

Interestingly, rwlock primitives are already not inlined.

Microoptimize locking primitives by avoiding unnecessary atomic ops.

Inline version of primitives do an atomic op and if it fails they fallback to
actual primitives, which immediately retry the atomic op.

The obvious optimisation is to check if the lock is free and only then proceed
to do an atomic op.

- For kernel compiled only with KDTRACE_HOOKS and not any lock debugging
option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].

[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested. As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while. Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].
