Inheriting $PATH during the build phase can cause the build to fail when
compiling on a different system due to missing build tools or incompatible
versions somewhere in $PATH. This has cause build failures for us before
due to the jenkins slaves still running FreeBSD 10.
Listing the tools we depend on explicitly instead of just using whatever
happens to be in $PATH allows us to check that we don't accidentally add a
new build dependency.
All tools that do no need to be bootstrapped will now be symlinked to
${WORLDTMP}/legacy/bin and during the build phase $PATH will only contain
${WORLDTMP}. There is also a new variable "BOOTSTRAP_ALL_TOOLS" which can
be set to force compiling almost all bootstrap tools instead of symlinking
them. This will not bootstrap tools such as cp,mv, etc. since they may be
used during the build and for those we should really only be using POSIX
compatible options.
Furthermore, this change is required in order to be able to build on
non-FreeBSD hosts. While the same binaries may exist on Linux/MacOS they
often accept different flags or produce incompatible output.

This has two advantages:
1) We no longer create lots of empty directories that are not needed
2) This is a requirement for building on non-FreeBSD hosts since mtree will
only exist after the bootstrap-tools phase there.

Since r336126 we depend on explicit_bzero() for the libmd
bootstrap. Add it to -legacy if it is not found in /usr/include/strings.h.

Use tools/build/Makefile to install the headers into ${WORLDTMP}/legacy
instead. Compared to r336026 this has the minor advantage that it avoids
unncessary header installation when building the non-bootstrap libnv.

In order to allow using utimensat() in install(1), add futimens() and
utimensat() to -legacy.
The files futimens.c and utimensat.c are modified copies of the files under
lib/libc/sys/ since the libc versions use symbols that do not exist in the
libc on the build system (sys_futimens and sys_utimensat) . I expect the
next non-sweeping change to both sets of files to be to delete them, anyway.
This will allow reverting r299942 (which is a revert of r299850) enabling
nanosecond timestamps in install(1).

Also add a stdlib.h wrapper, which declares the function, otherwise the
compiler may assume it returns int, which can cause segfaults on LP64

issues with vendors that needed 7.x support have been resolved. Many
vendors are still using 8.x build platforms, however, so bumping this
up to 9.0 will have to wait until that is resolved. Actual support for
building from 8.x still relies on those vendors fixing bugs that are
present as most developers have moved onto 9.x or newer platforms.

FreeBSD. This method attempts to centralize all the necessary hacks
or work arounds in one of two places in the tree (src/Makefile.inc1
and src/tools/build). We build a small compatibility library
(libbuild.a) as well as selectively installing necessary include
files. We then include this directory when building host binaries.
This removes all the past release compatibilty hacks from various
places in the tree. We still build on tip of stable and current. I
will work with those that want to support more, although I anticipate
it will just work.
Many thanks to ru@, obrien@ and jhb@ for providing valuable input at
various stage of implementation, as well as for working together to
positively effect a change for the better.
