Import vixie cron 4.0

Specifically, import the diff from commit e745bd4c10ab to
commit 83563783cc2 in https://github.com/vixie/cron.git

My sole motivation is changing to the common MIT license.
The old license, especially the "buildable source" clause,
is unfriendly for commercial users of this code. Simply
changing the license without importing [most of] the code
accompanying that license seemed legally dubious.

The most regrettable change is losing Paul's uucp path.
I partially atone for this loss by restoring the upstream
$Id$ tags, since $FreeBSD$ is no longer useful.

This is [intended to be] a complete list of the functional
changes in this commit. Some changes were made so that we
could consider vixie cron to be our upstream and reduce our
diffs against it, while others were simply a good idea.

- main() - use putenv instead of setenv for PATH
- open_pidfile no longer needs snprintf to build pidfile
- crontab main() - abort() on impossible errors
- check for truncation when building strings with snprintf
- getdtablesize() -> sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)

These changes were not taken from upstream's 4.0 diff because
they [could] actually change behavior. Some of them might be
beneficial, but should be taken separately.

- config.h - sendmail args: remove -oi and add -or0s
- call setlocale(LC_ALL, "") at the top of main()
- acquire_daemonlock - we already use pidfile
- cast getpid(), uid_t, and gid_t to long for printf
- remove unnecessary braces - I consider them beneficial
- BSDi support
- glue_strings() - use snprintf(), as we often already did

# 1f474190 27-Oct-2020 Stefan Eßer <se@FreeBSD.org>

Replace literal uses of /usr/local in C sources with _PATH_LOCALBASE

Literal references to /usr/local exist in a large number of files in
the FreeBSD base system. Many are in contributed software, in configuration
files, or in the documentation, but 19 uses have been identified in C
source files or headers outside the contrib and sys/contrib directories.

This commit makes it possible to set _PATH_LOCALBASE in paths.h to use
a different prefix for locally installed software.

In order to avoid changes to openssh source files, LOCALBASE is passed to
the build via Makefiles under src/secure. While _PATH_LOCALBASE could have
been used here, there is precedent in the construction of the path used to
a xauth program which depends on the LOCALBASE value passed on the compiler
command line to select a non-default directory.

This could be changed in a later commit to make the openssh build
consistently use _PATH_LOCALBASE. It is considered out-of-scope for this
commit.

# a96081bb 09-Jun-2018 Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org>

Remove old, dead compat code.

We no longer need to od these things conditionally, and the fallbacks
are to 4.2BSD era defaults, which nobody uses anymore. Vixie cron has
diverged from upstream anyway in our tree, and it's not clear there's
actually a viable upstream anymore. Plus, we don't follow the
vendor-supplied code pattern here.

I'm doing this to reduce false positives from grep.

cron(8): add support for /etc/cron.d and /usr/local/etc/cron.d

For automation tools it is way easier to maintain files in directories rather
than modifying /etc/crontab.

The files in those directories are in the same format as /etc/crontab

A new jail(8) with a configuration file, to replace the work currently done
by /etc/rc.d/jail.


# fe0506d7 09-Mar-2010 Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@FreeBSD.org>

Create the altix project branch. The altix project will add support
for the SGI Altix 350 to FreeBSD/ia64. The hardware used for porting
is a two-module system, consisting of a base compute module and a
CPU expansion module. SGI's NUMAFlex architecture can be an excellent
platform to test CPU affinity and NUMA-aware features in FreeBSD.

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Paul Vixie's cron, version 3.0. Munged into bmake format. If this goes
well, expect our two seperate directories for cron and crontab to go away
shortly.
