Allow the user to suppress the rate-limited pty(4) warning.
The pty(4) driver raises up to warnings when an old BSD-style PTY is created. The reason why I added this warning, was to make it easier to spot applications that allocate BSD-style PTY's, while they should just use openpty() or posix_openpt(). Add a sysctl, which allows you to override the number of remaining messages, making it possible to suppress the warnings. Requested by: kib Reviewed by: kib
