MFp4 @178364:
Implement an optional delay to the ddb reset/reboot command. This allows textdumps to be run automatically with unattended reboots after a resonable timeout, while still permitting an administrator to break into debugger if attached to the console at the time of the event for further debugging. Cap the maximum delay at 1 week to avoid highly accidental results, and default to 15s in case of problems parsing the timeout value. Move hex2dec helper function from db_thread.c to db_command.c to make it generally available and prefix it with a "db_" to avoid namespace collisions. Reviewed by: rwatson MFC after: 4 weeks
