Evaluated every variable that lives in .data (and globals in .rodata)
in the kernel modules, and constified/eliminated/localised them
appropriately. This means that all read-only data is now actually
read-only data, and, if possible, at file scope. A lot of previously-
global-symbols became inlinable (and inlined!) constants. Probably
not in a big Wowee Performance Moment, but hey.

`getfsstat(2)` is used to retrieve the list of mounted file systems,
which libzfs uses when fetching properties like mountpoint, atime,
setuid, etc. The `mode` parameter may be `MNT_NOWAIT`, which uses
information in the VFS's cache, or `MNT_WAIT`, which effectively does a
`statfs` on every single mounted file system in order to fetch the most
up-to-date information. As far as I can tell, the only fields that
libzfs cares about are the filesystem's name, mountpoint, fstypename,
and mount flags. Those things are always updated on mount and unmount,
so they will always be accurate in the VFS's mount cache except in two
circumstances:
1) When a file system is busy unmounting
2) When a ZFS file system changes the value of a mount-overridable
property like atime or setuid, but doesn't remount the file system.
Right now that only happens when the property is changed by an
unprivileged user who has delegated authority to change the property
but not to mount the dataset. But perhaps libzfs could choose to do
it for other reasons in the future.
Switching to `MNT_NOWAIT` will greatly improve speed with no downside,
as long as we explicitly update the mount cache whenever we change a
mount-overridable property.
For comparison, Illumos gets this information using the native
`getmntany` and `getmntent` functions, which also use cached
information. The illumos function that would refresh the cache,
`resetmnttab`, is never called by libzfs.
And on GNU/Linux, `getmntany` and `getmntent` don't even communicate
with the kernel directly. They simply parse the file they are given,
which is usually /etc/mtab or /proc/mounts. Perhaps the implementation
of /proc/mounts is synchronous, ala MNT_WAIT; I don't know.

Closes: #12091
We limit the size of nvlists passed to the kernel so a user cannot make
the kernel do an unreasonably large allocation. On FreeBSD this limit
was 128 kiB, which turns out to be a bit too small when doing some
operations involving a large number of datasets or snapshots, for
example replication.
Make this limit tunable, with a platform-specific auto default.
Linux keeps its limit at KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. FreeBSD uses 1/4 of the
system limit on user wired memory, which allows it to scale depending
on system configuration.

Issue #6572Closes#10706
In Illumos it is possible to call ioctl functions from within the
kernel by passing the FKIOCTL flag. Neither FreeBSD nor Linux support
that, but it doesn't hurt to keep it around, as all the code is there.
Before this commit it was a dead code and zc_iflags was always zero.
Restore this functionality by allowing to pass a flag to the
zfsdev_ioctl_common() function.
