Add support for the arbitrary named jail parameters used by jail_set(2)
and jail_get(2). Jail(8) can now create jails using a "name=value" format instead of just specifying a limited set of fixed parameters; it can also modify parameters of existing jails. Jls(8) can display all parameters of jails, or a specified set of parameters. The available parameters are gathered from the kernel, and not hard-coded into these programs. Small patches on killall(1) and jexec(8) to support jail names with jail_get(2). Approved by: bz (mentor)
