Add cpuset, an api for thread to cpu binding and cpu resource grouping
and assignment. - Add a reference to a struct cpuset in each thread that is inherited from the thread that created it. - Release the reference when the thread is destroyed. - Add prototypes for syscalls and macros for manipulating cpusets in sys/cpuset.h - Add syscalls to create, get, and set new numbered cpusets: cpuset(), cpuset_{get,set}id() - Add syscalls for getting and setting affinity masks for cpusets or individual threads: cpuid_{get,set}affinity() - Add types for the 'level' and 'which' parameters for the cpuset. This will permit expansion of the api to cover cpu masks for other objects identifiable with an id_t integer. For example, IRQs and Jails may be coming soon. - The root set 0 contains all valid cpus. All thread initially belong to cpuset 1. This permits migrating all threads off of certain cpus to reserve them for special applications.
