AF_LOCAL was a failed attempt (by POSIX?) to seem less UNIX-specific, but
AF_UNIX is both the historical _and_ standard name, so prefer and recommend
it in the headers, manpages, and kernel.

sync struct ifreq with if.h. ifr_vnetid is now a proper member of
struct ifreq and is no longer overloaded with ifr_metric. Moreover,
ifr_index and ifr_llprio were missing and mandoc -Tlint complained
about a "useless macro: Tn".

A slew of share/ man page fixes; nordin@cse.ogi.edu. These have been sitting
in my INBOX since Nov 6, 2000, probably forgot about them since the tree was
frozen at that time.

- remove all trailing whitespace
* except when it is escaped with a `\' at the end of the line
- fix remaining .Nm usage as well
- this is from a patch I received from kwesterback@home.com, who has been
working on some scripts for fixing formatting errors in mdoc'd man pages

Ok, so there could be a cost/benefit debate with this commit, but since I have
the patch we might as well commit it...
