So add a note in the manual page, that lstat(2) should be
used in the case of symbolic links.

In the errno list, add an explicit note and reference to the note in the
STANDARDS section.
When O_NOFOLLOW is specified and the target is a symbolic link FreeBSD
sets errno to a value different than that specified by POSIX. Commit
295159dfa3 added a note to this effect, but I missed it when reading
through the list of errno values.

We don't support it, so there's no need to tell readers what would
happen if we did. Also, don't remind the user that a certain field is
ignored by aio_read. Mentioning every ignored field would make the man
pages too verbose.

PR#273962 reported that copy_file_range(2) did not work
on shared memory objects and returned EINVAL.
Although the reporter felt this was incorrect, it is what
the Linux copy_file_range(2) syscall does.
Since there was no collective agreement that the FreeBSD
semantics should be changed to no longer be Linux compatible,
copy_file_range(2) still works on regular files only.
This man page update clarifies that. If, someday, copy_file_range(2)
is changed to support non-regular files, then the man page will
need to be updated to reflect that.

The actual implementation of sbrk(2) is on top of the undocumented
break(2) system call. On powerpc* this means we don't build _sbrk and
__sys_sbrk which were neither used nor exposed for linkage. Otherwise
it is a no-op.
The addition to lib/libc/sys/Makefile.inc is a direct commit to
stable/14 in lieu of merging the removal of the sbrk and sstk syscalls.

Due to memfd_create(3)'s construction of a path to pass to shm_open2(2),
it has a much larger than typical dependency footprint for a system
call wrapper (the list currently includes calloc, memset, sprintf, and
strlen). As such, split it off into its own file under libc/gen to
lighten libc/sys's dependency list.
