New generic disk framework.  Highlights:
New metrics handling.  Metrics are now kept in the new `struct disk'.
Busy time is now stored as a timeval, and transfer count in bytes.
Storage for disklabels is now dynamically allocated, so that the size
of the disk structure is not machine-dependent.
Several new functions for attaching and detaching disks, and handling
metrics calculation.
Old-style instrumentation is still supported in drivers that did it
before.  However, old-style instrumentation is being deprecated, and
will go away once the userland utilities are updated for the new
framework.
For usage and architectural details, see the forthcoming disk(9)
manual page.
