Re-add r212370 now that the LOR in powerpc64 has been resolved:

Add a drain function for struct sysctl_req, and use it for a variety
of handlers, some of which had to do awkward things to get a large
enough SBUF_FIXEDLEN buffer.

Note that some sysctl handlers were explicitly outputting a trailing
NUL byte.  This behaviour was preserved, though it should not be
necessary.
