sh: Remove the "exp" builtin.
The "exp" builtin is undocumented, non-standard and not very useful.
If exp's return value is not used, something like
VAR=$(exp EXPRESSION)
is equivalent to
VAR=$((EXPRESSION))
except that errors in the expression are fatal and quoting special
characters is not needed in the latter case.
If exp's return value is used, something like
if exp EXPRESSION >/dev/null
can be replaced by
if [ $((EXPRESSION)) -ne 0 ]
with similar differences.
The exp-run showed that "let" is close enough to bash's and ksh's builtin
that removing it would break a few ports. Therefore, "let" remains in 9.x.
PR: bin/104432
Exp-run done by: pav (with some other sh(1) changes)
